Cultural Heritage in the Near and Middle East, and in Africa

Degree programme choice orientation

The Master’s Degree in Cultural Heritage in the Near and Middle East and in Africa is designed for students who wish to explore the tangible and intangible cultural heritage of some of the most historically and culturally rich regions of the world. Entirely taught in English, the programme offers a solid multidisciplinary foundation, combining historical, archaeological, linguistic, and anthropological approaches with practical tools for heritage research, preservation, and management at both local and international levels.

This programme is particularly suited to students with a deep interest in the history and cultures of the Near East, the Middle East, and Africa, who also seek to develop critical and methodological skills for careers in academia, museums, publishing, and cultural institutions. The course equips graduates to work in intercultural and international environments, promoting cross-disciplinary dialogue and engagement with the challenges of the contemporary world.

The Programme Chair and the teaching staff provide continuous support in choosing the educational path, both prior to enrolment and throughout the student's academic journey.
