The M.S. Program in Conservation of Cultural Heritage is aimed at training graduate students with specialized skills for the conservation and preservation of historic monuments and sites. These include all the theoretical and practical background and the techniques necessary to conserve, restore and manage historic buildings, parts or the whole of historic towns and areas, and archaeological sites. The increase in scientific and cultural interest and the economic emphasis due to tourism have led to greater attention to this field. The curriculum aims at providing a multidisciplinary educational environment in accordance with the multidisciplinary nature of conservation. The students are introduced with the necessary approaches, methodologies, and tools orientated toward the conservation of cultural properties at various scales within the framework of conservation theory and principles, and educated to gain the skills for defining and solving related problems. They also get familiar with the materials and techniques of restoration by laboratory experience. Admission is open to all candidates holding a Bachelor's Degree.
