Art History and Museum Studies Program

A Eureka Student's blog about her research experience attracted many readers who shared their own experiences in the comments section of her blog. She transformed the blog into a forum named Vitamuse, which offered innovative forms of museum presentations, including video, audio, virtual stories, and hand-painted brochures for self-designed urban archaeological walking routes. The forum collaborated with 17 schools to organize museum photography competitions, tours, and activities, and established partnerships with museums to offer members perks like discounted admission, chats with curators, and access to storage rooms. The community grew to over 2,500 museum lovers in just over a year, comprising all ages and professions, from kindergarten children to 80-year-old nannies, IT workers, and foreigners residing in Shanghai.

A Eureka alumni was awarded an internship at the Public Education Department of the prestigious Shanghai Museum of Art. During her time there, she was entrusted with the responsibility of managing the museum's official social media accounts, an essential aspect of modern-day marketing and promotion. Over the course of her internship, she composed 13 engaging articles that captivated the museum's audience and garnered over 13,000 views. Her contributions helped raise the profile of the museum and highlighted its collections to a broader audience, contributing to the overall mission of the museum and increasing awareness of Chinese art and culture. The opportunity to intern at such an esteemed institution provided the alumni with a valuable experience that will benefit her career and personal growth.
