MA Conservation of Archaeological & Museum Objects (Diss)

This is a 2 year (full-time) or 3 years (part-time) course that is particularly appropriate for those seeking a career in conservation research, preventive conservation or for those with significant practical work or an undergraduate degree in conservation who are interested in exploring a particular facet of the field in greater depth. Graduates of the course typically go on to work in museums or large heritage organisations. Graduate students are drawn from a wide range of disciplines, but manual dexterity, a knowledge of chemistry and enthusiasm and a desire to work with museum objects are essential.

A good second class honours degree (typically 2:1 Honours) or international equivalent in any subject and a pass in mathematics at Grade 4 (or C) or above at GCSE level, or equivalent. Applicants without a degree will be required to demonstrate sufficient academic capability to satisfactorily complete this degree.
