The terminal degree for museum studies is a master's. I can recommend
an article if you're interested in "professionalizing the muses toward a
Ph.D. in museum studies."

I have a question to follow up on this topic. I am wondering if there
are
any museum programs (preferably PhD) that concentrate on artifact and
archaeological site preservation. I've started looking into that as an
option for my PhD and am having problems finding anything of that
nature.
Thanks,
Katherine Morales, M.A.
