‡

The buildings and

communities around

us represent an important

link to our living history.

Preservationists play a critical

role in restoring and adapting

them—and ensuring that their

significance is not forgotten.

Our program explores the field of historic preservation at many levels. Taught by professionals

from some of our nation’s most prestigious preservation organizations, our courses address the

most current issues and developments in the field. You will reinforce the things you learn in

your classes through assignments that draw upon the rich historic resources of the region.

Whether you work in preservation professionally or as a volunteer—or simply wish to learn more

about our material and cultural history—you will find courses that meet your interests and needs.

And whether you’re restoring a home, tracing the cultural heritage of a neighborhood, or serving

on a preservation-related commission or board, you will learn the skills you need to explore,

understand, and preserve the architectural milestones of our past.

The certificate program in historic preservation has been approved for the education of qualified veterans

and, when eligible, the spouses of deceased or disabled veterans under the provisions of the various federal

laws pertaining to veterans’ educational benefits.
