Fall 2018 Historic Preservation Courses

September 4 - November 13, 2018

WHAT PARTS OF OUR PAST CAN WE PROTECT FOR OUR FUTURE? Join the Conversation - Become a Historic Preservation Student at MARCH this Fall!  

As a living laboratory, Camden and nearby Philadelphia provide a great place to learn the processes and techniques of historic preservation. The Historic Preservation Continuing Education Program at Rutgers-Camden is designed for those who desire to gain a deeper understanding of the vocabulary, tools, and techniques of the discipline. These courses and workshops are geared toward any interested adult: homeowners, community leaders, historic commission members, preservation activists, people in related trades and professions, and the simply curious.Students can choose to pursue a certificate in Historic Preservation, which does not require matriculation at Rutgers. The Fall 2018 courses offer American Institute of Architects (AIA) credits, as well as American Institute of Certified Planners (AICP) continuing education credits. No previous experience in the field is necessary. 

Spaces are limited, so register now at preservation.rutgers.edu to reserve your spot!
