Education

The PennCHC’s faculty regularly teach four courses at the University of Pennsylvania. These courses make up the core of the Cultural Heritage Management certificate in the College of Liberal and Professional Studies. The certificate program has several interrelated goals, which are to

• Provide students with a graduate-level understanding of the central issues in cultural heritage management in a global context.
• Equip students with skills such as economic analysis, fund-raising and non-profit management, which are essential to successful careers in heritage management organizations.
• Help educators integrate cultural heritage management content into their curriculum.

The PennCHC has compiled a survey of cultural heritage education opportunities in the United States as of 2015. This survey is accessible for download here.
