You can acquire a curator’s license
A curator works at a museum, working on the collection, storage, investigation, research and exhibition of museum material, as well as teaching. To obtain a curator’s license, you must complete the credits necessary for graduation as well as the credits necessary for the subjects required by the license. The license requires the Museum Practical as well as credits in other courses. Depending on the type of museum you choose (art, history, ethnology etc.), you will also need knowledge in specialized fields. We suggest studying a wide spread of related subjects.
