Program Description:

The 54-credit graduate program is structured in layers, beginning with an initial core semester devoted to the analysis and documentation of historic sites, followed by an advanced studio-focused semester organized around the development of a preservation project. The second year highlights advanced analysis and conservation studies, historic interiors, project administration, and individual research.
Thesis proposals are defended in the third semester and completed as a multimedia project in the fourth semester of the program.
