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.

Heritage is more than monuments. It is the living memory of the nation and a 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, and festivals.

The program is designed to enable graduates to mobilize such resources for social and

economic benefits. The University (UFE) is currently engaged in a project to revitalize

Historic Cairo, and another on the conservation and management of archaeological sites

of Earliest Egypt (5000 to 3000 BC). UFE has won an international competition to train

the staff of the National Museum of Egyptian Civilization, and is a partner in the Inter-

national Erasmus program in Museum studies.
