Master of Science in Historic Preservation

Our program, which is based in Charleston, South Carolina, offers a two-year course of study that leads to the Master of Science in Historic Preservation degree. Historic preservation is a field that studies, interprets, and protects the past as it is materialized in buildings and landscapes. In our unique program, we emphasize the cultural relationships between people, buildings, and landscapes. Consequently, we teach our students to preserve both the fabric of historic buildings and landscapes and the stories that give those places meaning. Our curriculum is built around hands-on learning because our goal is to produce students with the knowledge and experience they need to be successful in our field. Our students learn preservation by doing preservation with Charleston?s foremost experts in architectural conservation, architectural history, landscape preservation, and urban/preservation planning. We also train our students in the most cutting-edge preservation technology and techniques including Geographic Information Systems (GIS), drone photography, digital photogrammetry, 3D laser scanning, 3D modeling, ground penetrating radar, architectural and object conservation, and mortar and paint analysis. We are also one of a very few programs that have an active conservation laboratory at the center of their curriculum. We apply our skills all over the city of Charleston, which is essentially our living laboratory, and this unique home provides incredible opportunities to explore, first-hand, world-class architecture, museums, and history spanning four centuries.
