The Museo Universidad de Navarra is a university museum
A learning space at the service of the university community, the teaching community and society as a whole.
In addition to offering a postgraduate program (Master's Degree in Curatorial Studies), the Museum is at the service of the university community of all educators and teachers. The young public finds in Campus Creativo a permanent and a seasonal program, and serves as a link with the artistic concerns of students during their studies at the University.
Based on the collection and artistic actions, the Museum contributes to their incorporation as innovative teaching resources that connect learning with creativity and art. The educational programming benefits from the knowledge of the Museum and the University to serve teachers and trainers in educational environments and social groups through school programs and social proposals.
Teaching: Learning Space
The Museum and the daily presence of art on Campus are an educational resource at the service of the entire community.
As a center of the University of Navarra, the Museum hosts teaching and projects of various schools, faculties and postgraduate programs, collaborates with teachers and researchers, and offers students the possibility of obtaining credits, combining their studies with cultural activities and taking courses at the museum in collaboration with faculties.
PROGRAMME: PERFORMING ARTS PRODUCTION PROGRAMME
The Performing Arts Production Programme seeks to prepare the student for responsible and broad vision roles in the performing arts.
TALENTO ARTÍSTICO
Inspired by sports talent programs, this program allows the acquisition of credits to participants of the ongoing training of Campus Creativo, to the members of the orchestra, choir or theater groups.
COMMUNICATION AND CULTURAL CRITIQUE
In collaboration with the School of Communication, the course offers tools and experiences specific to this field of journalism thanks to the participation of invited professionals from various specialized media.

Do you want to be a Museum ambassador or guide?
The Museum's ambassadors are students of the University of Navarra. All the Faculties and Schools of the University are represented by at least one ambassador per year. The students help us to disseminate our artistic programme (exhibitions, performances, public and educational programmes) among their peers.
The Museum's guides are PhD students from the University of Navarra. They are in charge of guiding visitors through our exhibitions and showing them the building, designed by Rafael Moneo. They visit the exhibitions before anyone else with the artist or, otherwise, with the curator of the exhibition so that they can get to know the project.
On what consists being an ambasssador
At least once a year, the ambassadors organise a visit to the exhibitions with their colleagues.
The ambassadors are the first to learn about the Museum's programme. Two meetings are organised for this purpose, one in September and the other at the end of January.
The ambassadors help the Museum with the dissemination of the programme among their colleagues.
Throughout the year, the ambassadors attend at least 5 activities programmed by the Museum.
Research is inherent to the University. The artistic creation promoted by the MUN is conceived as research and to this end the museum works to achieve an adequate record of the process. The Museum promotes research on the arts, for the arts and in the arts, seeking to share and enrich each other through frequent collaboration with the academic community in the development of various projects.
The Museum is working on the creation of an Archive of Creative Processes in which the different phases and processes involved in the research and creation projects carried out by the artists are recorded.
In these research processes to build their own projects, the artists collaborate with the artistic direction of the Museum and, if they wish, with academics, the university community and other centers of the University. This enriches the process through collaboration.
In addition, the Museum establishes special alliances and complicity with the ICS (Instituto Cultura y Sociedad) with which it works on joint projects or projects that involve the organization or production of shared events.
Nor can we forget the research projects in which Museum professionals collaborate with faculties and experts in university research projects that result in publications in book format or academic articles.

Pause laboratory
The "Laboratory of Pause" of Museo Universidad de Navarra is a space for empirical research for the improvement of the physical and mental capacities, attitudes and skills that allow us to develop the contemplative life.
It was inaugurated in May 2023 with the I Week of Attention that was organized as part of MUN's SociArte program. In collaboration with ICS and with the support of the Friends of Attention group, the Week of Attention attracted to its workshops and activities more than 40 participants interested in the theory and practice of attention and listening as a means to link ourselves with art, with others and with our environment.
