Heritage Preservation, Advanced Certificate
The Advanced Certificate in Heritage Preservation builds on the idea of public history as the collection, preservation and dissemination of information about the past, beyond the academic program and to the general public. Heritage preservation is dedicated to preserving, conserving and protecting buildings, objects, landscapes and other artifacts of historical significance. Preservationists and conservators (those who actively restore and rehabilitate historic artifacts) work in organizations like archives, libraries, museums, historical societies, public policy organizations, schools, government organizations and parks, churches, media, and corporations.
