The Diploma
in Heritage Resources is offered to students enrolled in the BA
or other appropriate Bachelor's program and to students who have
completed a Bachelor's degree at this or another university. The
program offers training in object documentation, identification,
conservation, and display.
Required courses give students both an awareness of the broad
range of heritage resources - including objects, sites, landscapes,
documents - and specific skills to deal with public perceptions of
objects and artifacts. The program also includes a course in
tourism management. Elective courses enable students to pursue
their particular disciplinary interests.
