Overview
Those who obtain the qualification from the Master's in Cultural Services at University of Santiago de Compostela will be ready to work for themselves or to integrate and lead structures that address any aspect related to the transmission and creation of value for the cultural universe in order to facilitate its access and enjoyment by society in general, or specific sectors of it.
The programme
Given the apparent polysemy of the term ‘culture’, the areas of work of specialists in the interpretation applied to this term are also broad and diverse, and they all share the vocation of service, of the active provision of culture with a view to its transmission to specific sectors of the population (children, elderly, professionals, etc.) or citizens as a whole.

- Conservation, promotion and planning of cultural heritage.
- Management and cultural programming in institutions and public administrations.

- Design and coordination of exhibitions in museums and art galleries.
- Advice and management of companies or public bodies related to culture.
- Promotion and management of tourism-oriented cultural resources.
- International cultural cooperation and NGOs.
