HISTORIC CONSERVATION COURSE
: Established in 1990, the course is the
product of collaboration between the two major institutions of higher
education in Oxford. The course aims to be not only relevant to the role
of the conservation officer working within the planning system, but
also to meet the needs of a wider range of professionals working within
the public, private and voluntary sectors of the heritage industry. The
modular construction of the course enables full or part-time study for a
PG Diploma or an MSc in Historic Conservation, or part-time study for a
Certificate in Historic Conservation. There are further opportunities for
MPhil or PhD research.
