The courses, faculty, and administration are interdepartmental. The Director of the Program and the administrative faculty committee are appointed by the AA&A Dean. The Historic Preservation program has broad cultural concerns with a technical emphasis. Attention is given to historic places, buildings, and landscapes in terms of their specific forms, materials, construction, and use. The cultural and theoretical context in which they were developed is addressed, as is the impact of time upon their materials, meanings, and needs. The technologies, interpretations, and means for sustaining the presence of historic places in the future are also emphasized. Students gain an understanding of historic resources and the processes for their preservation through both theoretical and practical venues. This includes core classes in research methods; preservation history and theory; architectural history; and the economic, legal, and administrative processes of preservation. Classes are augmented by fieldwork in the urban, suburban, and rural areas of the region. Oregon contains Native American sites, rural buildings, and landscapes developed by US and European immigrant pioneers from the 1830s, as well as urban development since the 1840s.     Accreditation Information:   # Of Credits Required:   Time To Degree:     Previous Degrees Bachelor of Arts or a Bachelor of Science degree is required for all applicants.  Pre-Requisite Courses International Student Requirements A minimum TOEFL test score of 575 (paper), 250 (computer) or 88 (internet) is required for admission consideration for all international students.  Requirements Qualifying Exam: GMAT Minimum Exam Score: GPA or Equivalent: English Proficiency: Yes Research Competency: Yes Clinical Internship: Yes   Work Experience Volunteer Experience Publications Experience Foreign Language Requirement Other Requirements   Cost Per Credit Hour: $   Tuition:   Financial Aid Offered:       # of Students Enrolled Full Time: 2363  # of Students Enrolled Part Time: 893  Average GPA:   Average Test Scores:   Charge Per Credit: $522  Annual Full Time Avg Institution Tuition: $14094  Financial Aid Offered: Yes  Average Work Experience: Less than 1 Year  Specializations:   # of Terms Per Year:   Placement Percentage:   Historically Black: No   Religious Affiliation: Not applicable
