Academic Engagement at the Haggerty Museum of Art

The Haggerty Museum of Art is an innovative nexus of interdisciplinary learning where creativity, intellect and social justice intersect. Every year the Museum engages over 5,000 Marquette University students with its collections, exhibitions and programs. Through object-based learning experiences in the Haggerty's galleries, undergraduate and graduate students studying everything from Accounting to Nursing to Theology strengthen their skills in visual literacy, critical thinking, cultural competency, and innovation.
