Academic Research and Protection of Cultural Heritage

    This stream of the master program offers a selection of academic and scholarly methods and disciplines essential  for  heritage  studies  (cultural  and  natural)  and  combines  them  with particular  skills  of management related to the protection of heritage. The stream is designed mainly for those coming to the program with a former education in humanities or any academic disciplines researching heritage. At the same  time, the stream also offers a  basic education  for those individuals who want  to change the character of  their university education from a  management  type activity to a more research oriented carrier.
