The Department of Classical & Archaeological Studies is pleased to announce its new MA programme for the 2017/18 academic year, International Heritage and Law, is now open for applications.

The MA is a distinct programme combining the study of heritage with an understanding of the legal frameworks which govern the management of our heritage. It will be of particular interest to those who wish to study cultural heritage as an academic subject, those who wish to pursue a career in international heritage and development, lawyers who want to specialise in cultural heritage issues or heritage specialists who want to acquire a better understanding of legal issues. The programme draws upon staff expertise in the Department of Classical & Archaeological Studies alongside staff from the Kent Law School.

Dr Sophia Labadi, Director of the new MA, commented: ‘This innovative MA will help students acquire cutting-edge knowledge and skills increasingly required to develop a career in the heritage sector.’
