The Department of Museum Studies and the Mayborn Museum take a large number of students and staff members to the annual meeting of the Texas Association of Museum. The department faculty includes two past presidents of TAM. Each year an outstanding student is selected to give a presentation on their thesis or project at the annual meeting. In addition our students have successfully proposed their own sessions.

Some students have attended the annual meeting of the American Association of Museums (AAM) and also the International Council of Museums (ICOM). The department chair has served on the board of AAM's Committee on Museum Professional Training (COMPT) for twelve years and chaired the committee for four. Baylor graduates have proposed and chaired a session at AAM, and one of our students presented at the ICOM meeting in Shanghai, China.

Department faculty members also have associations with related professional organizations, including:

  • Academy of Certified Archivists
  • American Alliance of Museums
  • American Association for State and Local History
  • American Historical Association
  • Association of Children's Museums
  • Association of Science and Technology Centers
  • Museum Association of Waco
  • Museum Education Roundtable
  • National Art Education Association
  • National Council on Public History
  • National Trust for Historic Preservation
  • New England Museum Association
  • Organization of American Historians
  • Society of Architectural Historians
  • Society of Southwestern Archivists
  • Texas Association of Museums
  • Texas State Historical Association
  • Vernacular Architecture Forum
