Julie Mathieu ’14, Deaccession Support Specialist, Smithsonian Institution
Getting my bachelor’s degree in History from Providence College was one of the best decisions I have made for my academic and professional life. The faculty helped to encourage my interest in public history, and the research and interpretation skills I learned in my classes served me well in my graduate program at George Washington University for Museum Studies. The courses I took while at Providence College provided a strong base of knowledge that I can draw from for my current job at the Smithsonian National Museum of American History, conducting research for a variety of museum collections, including military, science, and domestic life objects.
