Master Degree In Cultural Heritage Management

An Interdisciplinary program offered jointly by the Université Française d’Egypte and the University of Paris 1 Panthéon-Sorbonne.

resource for social and economic development. Heritage includes all the

manifestations that have survived from the past, ranging from temples,

mosques, monasteries to historical houses, and from proverbs, artworks and

tales to musical performances, festivals and celebrations. In this unique Mas-

ter’s Program you will learn how to manage the varied, and rich resources of

our diverse cultural heritage, and will be introduced to how to mobilize such

resources for social and economic development.
