This exciting two-year MSc Conservation of Contemporary Art and Media offers a unique opportunity to undertake vocational training in the conservation of contemporary sculpture, installation, and time-based art and design media works, including conceptual, digital, socially engaged, performance-based and mixed media works. While ensuring that students are engaged with the critical debates around contemporary art and design conservation and stewardship, the programme is grounded in hands-on training for real-world situations.
