Historic Preservation: Cultural Heritage: History and Research (Stackable Certificate)
Cultural heritage advocacy seeks to protect heritage and communities, manifested in buildings, landscapes, or even intangibles, such as a sense of place or traditions. Like other sustainability efforts, cultural heritage studies help to conserve resources for society's betterment in the present and the future. Understanding historic cultural heritage principles and historical research are crucial for a thoughtful design strategy when dealing with historic buildings.
In the Historic Preservation: Cultural Heritage: History and Research stackable graduate certificate, students will explore foundational skills and knowledge to approach cultural heritage from the historical point of view. Students will formulate historical research and reports while describing the historical built environment using terms and concepts embedded in the field of cultural heritage practice.
