Historic Preservation (Certificate)

Are you interested in the stewardship and future of historic buildings and structures? Then Salem's courses  in Historic Preservation, available beginning fall 2010, may be of interest to you. You may choose to minor in this subject area OR earn your certificate.

Drawing upon the wealth of Salem's historic setting in Old Salem, you will develop knowledge and skills in the history and theory of historic preservation, methods of documentation and recordation, issues related to sustainable design and the ways in which history is portrayed to public audiences in all sorts of settings. 

You will be able to take a blend of courses in art, history and interior design as a result of studying Historic Preservation. Internships will be encouraged, along with study abroad.
