Summary

Our highly regarded Architectural Conservation programme is more than 50 years old. It is the longest-established graduate historic preservation programme in Scotland or its neighbouring nations.

Whether you are approaching the field from an architectural, historical, social or other viewpoint, this programme will guide you through the foundations and challenges of this important means of nurturing cultural identity.

You will benefit from learning in a programme based in the heart of the Edinburgh World Heritage Site - and from the wealth of academic and intellectual activities associated with an internationally-renowned university.

You will be part of the Scottish Centre for Conservation Studies (SCCS), a specialist teaching and research unit that provides the depth of expertise and resources that ensures the Institute of Historic Building Conservation recognises this programme.

Volunteering opportunities are normally also available through our partnerships with relevant organisations, allowing you to flex your skills in a practical setting.
