Sustainable Heritage MPhil/PhD

Sustainable heritage studies the management and conversation of heritage as well as exploring how heritage can be a catalyst for social, economic, and environmental sustainable development. These ideas have quickly gained recognition and value in the worlds of management, physical and natural sciences and the heritage sector. The UCL Institute for Sustainable Heritage delivers sustainable solutions to real-world problems concerning heritage, and works with external partners on ground-breaking, cross-disciplinary research and innovative teaching for future heritage leaders. Research is at the core of the UCL Institute for Sustainable Heritage. Our work bridges physical and natural sciences, social sciences, arts, and humanities, combining transdisciplinary expertise to deliver sustainable solutions to real-world problems concerning heritage.
