Utrecht University Museum

The Utrecht University Museum manages and unlocks the academic heritage of Utrecht University and makes the importance of science visible. The Museum has a strong focus on science education and communication and uses University's rich collection of academic heritage.

The Museum is embedded in Utrecht University, so there are direct connections with current research and there is close collaboration with high-level scientists.

In the Museum it is not so much about transferring knowledge, but about the scientific process, the impact of scientific research and increasing understanding about how science works.

The Utrecht University Museum wants to be a forerunner in the field of science communication and play an important role in showing the social impact of Utrecht research.
