Taught in partnership with colleagues at the Sheffield University Management School, this course provides training in heritage management and interpretation, as well as marketing, and creative industries management. You will have the opportunity to develop skills necessary to work in the heritage industry. For example, you'll learn about debates and themes in heritage studies, archaeology, and creative industries.
Usually a minimum 2:1 honours degree in an arts, humanities or science subject. But your interest in and understanding of archaeology is more important than what you studied at undergraduate level.
