Leibniz Centre of Excellence for Museum Education

The goal of the Centre of Excellence for Museum Education is to jointly examine and advance visitor research and empirical educational research on museums as informal learning settings. To this end, museums and educational research institutions from all over Germany have joined forces in the Center of Excellence to discuss central questions and to answer them empirically. The current research fields of the network are visitor research, informal learning as well as perception and information processing.
