Designed for a new generation of heritage leaders, the Heritage Management route of the Sustainable Heritage MSc provides the interdisciplinary skills needed to deliver the heritage programmes and projects of the future. You will learn the latest in heritage management policies, projects, methodologies and practices in the context of historic buildings, sites, landscapes, museums and collections.
As a student you will be encouraged to take a long view of conservation and heritage management. You will learn about concepts of value, sustainability, life expectancy, stewardship, ownership, vulnerability and risk. These concepts will be interwoven with the scientific study of historic materials, assemblies, technologies and systems. You will be challenged to define problems, set objectives, and explore a range of sustainability issues and strategies when approaching heritage projects. Together, this knowledge will give you an excellent interdisciplinary foundation to manage heritage projects sustainably.
