New exhibitions and gallery experiences will transform the ways that the museum’s audiences connect to scientists and their research, the museum’s unique scientific collections, and the contributions these resources make to understanding the past, present, and future of nature and human cultures.  Must have a masters or terminal degree in a natural science field, museum studies, or design. Minimum of five years of professional experience in exhibition development. Must be an experienced manager skilled in staff development and the management of group goals and processes.
