Graduate Diploma Conservation Studies
The Graduate Diploma Conservation Studies is an intensive one-year conversion course which aims to enable graduates from a non-conservation background to advance their knowledge and skills.
Students have the opportunity to access a range of analytical equipment and learn from practitioners with extensive experience. They can also benefit from the team’s strong links with museums, professional bodies, and heritage agencies.
During this course, students will be expected to produce their own portfolios of specialist drawings and photographs, and have the chance to develop technical skills for the treatment of historic objects. Students will be encouraged to take advantage of opportunities to involve themselves in live projects.
