Description: | The University of Dundee Museum Collections comprise over 20,000 artefacts, artworks and specimens representing the educational, institutional and cultural history of the University and its predecessor bodies (University College, Dundee and Queen's College, Dundee), as well as the various other institutions that have become affiliated to it, including Duncan of Jordanstone College of Art & Design, Dundee College of Education and the Medical, Dental and Nursing Schools. Much of the collection represents items used in teaching or research at these institutions (including scientific instruments, teaching charts, models, calculators and natural science specimens) but there are also collections of fine and decorative art acquired for display around the campus and in teaching and research at the Art College. Among the most significant collections held by the University are the D'Arcy Thompson Zoology Collection, the Tayside Medical History Museum Collection and the various Fine Art Collections. The Collections are displayed across the campus in permanent displays and temporary exhibitions and are managed as an Accredited public museum service. | Format: | art specimens instruments artefacts | Subjects: | Zoology Health and Medicine Graphic Design Architecture Decorative and Applied Art Physics etc Scientific Instruments Fine Art Medical Instruments Botany Non-Western Ethnography Education Costume and Textiles Silver Photography | Source: | University of Dundee | Address: | 5-7 Hawkhill Place,
