Embark on a professional journey in heritage and conservation through a program fully accredited by the Institute of Historic Building Conservation (IHBC), the UK's premier organization for conservation specialists and historic environment professionals. This MA program encourages critical thinking about heritage's significance while examining sustainable management approaches across diverse contexts—architectural, urban, social, political, scientific, and economic.
You'll discover fundamental theories, methodologies, and real-world applications of sustainable heritage management, with a focus on conservation, sustainability, tourism, and urban renewal.
Collaborate directly with local, national, and global heritage institutions on practical initiatives. Through fieldwork alongside industry experts, you'll build a professional network within the sector.
An optional internship allows you to acquire direct experience in cultural institutions like libraries, museums, or historic sites. Our partner organizations feature prominent institutions such as National Museums Liverpool, Liverpool Anglican Cathedral, Slate Museum Wales, Victoria Gallery & Museum, and Port Sunlight Village Trust.
Taught by renowned heritage scholars and practitioners, you can enhance your learning by participating in research initiatives through groups like the Heritage Theme, ArCHIAM Centre, and Architectural and Urban History Group.
