Welcome to UMAC
UMAC welcomes all who work in, are interested in or who manage, university museums and collections anywhere in the world.
UMAC is important because it stimulates discussions, fosters international partnerships, develops links and advances knowledge. It regards quality of individual experience as essential in all its dealings. UMAC believes in diversity of approach.
UMAC attempts to reach its goals by a series of successive small steps. UMAC is young, growing, active and practical. It already has a proud publication record and its annual conferences are a wonderful experience.
UMAC is important because it promotes better understanding and increases knowledge. It develops definitions, procedures and policies. With its international contacts it can help those who seek assistance. UMAC practices advocacy and respectfully proffers information where it is needed.
