Overview

The Heritage programme from The University of Wales Trinity Saint David enables students to gain critical acumen in exploring the meanings of heritage as a concept and how such concepts are applied in the UK and on a worldwide basis, thus providing valuable insights and an understanding of a sector that is gaining increased significance in today’s world.

Heritage, as understood here, is a concern for the past, imagined and constructed in (and for) the present, but set within a wider appreciation for the future. The past as Heritage might include the tangible surroundings of landscape, art, building and written traces, alongside the more intangible aspects of heritage such as a sense of place, cultural space and resonance, or a locus of ritual, festivals and social memory.

Career Opportunities

This programme is ideal for those who want to learn more about the heritage industry and the representation of the past, but there are also some more practical module choices to help students improve their job prospects.
Many of the students who undertake the course on a part-time basis are already in employment and wish to gain a postgraduate qualification as a possible means to promotion or change of job role.
Former students include journalists, writers, storytellers, teachers, lecturers, editors and people who work in the tourist or heritage industries.
