Department Faculty
The department faculty includes nationally and internationally recognized conservators and other conservation specialists with extensive experience in conservation education. All of its instructors' sole teaching assignments are in the department, allowing them to provide students with uninterrupted guidance both in the classroom and outside scheduled class periods. In order to augment the instruction provided by the faculty, adjunct faculty and consultants in specialized areas of conservation and allied fields are invited throughout the year to enrich the instructional program through lectures, demonstrations, and workshops. |
