Dynamics of Cultural Landscapes and Heritage Management
Duration
2 years
Course description
The Master Dyclam (Dynamics of cultural landscapes and heritage management) offers a mobility training between the University
Jean Monnet Saint- Etienne (UJM, France), the Polytechnic Institute of Tomar (IPT , Portugal), the National Museum of Natural
History in Paris (MNHN) and either the University Federico II of Naples (UNINA, Italy) or the University of Stuttgart (UStuttgart,
Germany). 4 international academic institutions (Universities of Tetouan in Morocco, Dakar, Senegal, Santa Catarina in Brazil,
Laval, Quebec ) and 5 actors of territorial development and heritage protection (IUCN, Blue Shield , CUECB Institute Terra e
Memoria and the city of Firminy) are associated partners. This 2-year curriculum (120 ECTS) aims to train future managers of
territorial and human development through the Cultural Landscape and managers of labeled site able to understand the complexity
of cultural landscapes (PCs). Dyclam emphasizes learning of complex, global and integrated management, conservation and
sustainable exploitation of heritage systems and sites (tangible and intangible heritage), protected areas and PCs. The training
meets the needs identified by Unesco, international agencies and local communities. Through its scientific and technical content,
the fieldwork, with its innovative methodology (collaborative project, openness to civil society and entrepreneurial), its
multidisciplinary spirit, and multiculturalism, Dyclam aims to educate adaptable and operational practitioners. Career opportunities
are numerous: management, project development applied to territories, sites and monumental structures, protected natural areas,
engineering of intangible heritage, preventive conservation, cultural economy, education and research. The training is open to 22
students holding a Bachelor degree or equivalent (180 ECTS) in Planning, Urbanism, Humanities, Natural sciences, Architecture,
Engineering, Design, and Art .
Languages of teaching are French and English (as supporting help). Students receive languages lessons in Portuguese, Italian,
and German. After their 1st sem. at UJM (common culture around the heritage and PCs ), their 2nd sem. at IPT (Integrated
Management / Sustainable Development through Cultural Landscape, reduction of vulnerability regarding disasters), their 3rd sem.
at the MNHN (Relation societies /nature & societies/ protected areas), students will have the choice between UNINA (for 2 months
on fieldworks of management and governance of PCs followed by a 4-month internship in the country of a Dyclam partner) or
UStuttgart (for2 months on the progressive anthropology of space followed by a research for 4 months). Dyclam delivers a joint
degree.
