Course description

Our strong links with the heritage industry mean you can apply what you learn in real-world situations – during the course.

You can come to the course from either an archaeology or a business/management background. Taught in partnership with colleagues from the Sheffield University Management School, it provides training in heritage interpretation and conservation, as well as marketing and site management.
