The course
The MPhil in Heritage Studies is an exciting and intensive 11-month course offering students a unique interdisciplinary Masters programme that provides outstanding education in the broad field of Heritage Studies. This course, taught within the Department of Archaeology, prepares graduates to either undertake further research in the field of heritage or enter a range of professions within the heritage industry and beyond.
The new MPhil in Heritage Studies is a specialised free-standing Masters programme, which replaces the Archaeological Heritage and Museums option previously offered within the MPhil in Archaeology.
