Cultural Heritage Management

MA Cultural Heritage Management aims to enhance students' knowledge of the demands of leadership in the cultural heritage sector. These include broadening the appeal of attractions and collections; anticipating sector-wide trends, nationally and internationally; exploring the possibilities of digital cultural heritage; and understanding visitors and users more effectively. A strong theme of social justice runs through the programme.

Academics who teach on the programme combine research insights with extensive practical experience, contributing business, social science, and humanities insights to the course. Students benefit from the close links we have developed to cultural heritage sites of major importance

During the programme, students may benefit from external guest lectures delivered by experienced practitioners, participate in study visits to cultural and heritage attractions, and participate in live projects that aim to provide hands-on applications of classroom-based learning.
