The Winterthur Program provides interdisciplinary study of diverse ideas, contexts, and theories—supported by truly unparalleled hands-on study of objects, landscapes, buildings, decorative arts, and design, both within and outside the vast collections of the Winterthur Museum, Garden & Library—so that all of our students may master the skills necessary to expand and confound predominant scholarship in material culture.
Students attending this two-year program, established in 1952, are fully funded in partnership between Winterthur and the University of Delaware. The program involves coursework at both institutions. Graduates receive a Master of Arts degree in American Material Culture from the University of Delaware. For more information and application details, click here.
