The Master's Degree in Mediterranean Studies: Comprehensive Perspectives on Cultural Heritage, History and Art aims to provide general training in the knowledge, skills and abilities enabling students to work or undertake research in the areas of cultural heritage, history and art history. The programme's training goals are as follows:

• Making advances in knowledge about and the interpretation and multivocality of the concept of the Mediterranean as a topic for historical analysis
• Providing academic specialisation ensuring graduates are fully fluent in different skills, including the major methodological approaches and analysis tools to produce original research into cultural heritage, history and art history within a Mediterranean setting.

Learning Goals on the Programme's Specialisations

The Cultural Heritage specialisation provides students with advanced knowledge, skills and abilities with regard to the most common methodologies, approaches and practices enabling professional practice and research in this area.

The History specialisation provides students with specialised knowledge, skills and abilities to comprehend Mediterranean history as a specific field and use them in their future professional research careers.

The Art History specialisation provides students with advanced knowledge, skills and abilities to understand artistic creation, production and consumption in the Mediterranean context, and use this research approach in their future careers.

The UIB Department of History and Theory of Art has designed this master's programme to train professionals in two main areas:

1. Cultural heritage project management and research
2. Advanced research into history and art history topics.

Both these profiles align with the requirements in today's society. The first area trains specialists who are able to manage cultural heritage as an asset and tool to benefit contemporary society. Society views heritage as a way to train citizens in a set of values underpinning heritage education, as well as seeing it as a resource to develop quality and sustainable tourism linked to respectful cultural and environmental policies that take history and art history into consideration with regard to tangible and intangible cultural heritage. The second area trains specialists in history and art history research topics where the Mediterranean plays a recurrent role. It aims to train professionals who are able to make specific contributions in advancing knowledge in research linked to the Mediterranean. In turn, it lays the foundations for graduates who wish to undertake further research at PhD level.

On the one hand, the programme trains specialists in cultural heritage who are likely to work in different technical and specialised areas as heritage specialists and managers, specialists in cataloguing cultural assets, and facilitators and monitors within cultural tourism and for socio-cultural activities, etc. On the other hand, it also trains researchers in cultural heritage and different academic disciplines, such as history, art history, archival science, archaeology, epigraphy, diplomatic studies, etc.

Graduates will be able to work across different services and areas in public administrations (culture, tourism, planning, archives, libraries, museums, etc.) and within industry, at corporations linked to cultural and leisure activities.
