Career and educational prospects (occupational fields or doctorate)
Career prospects

The Master of Science (M.Sc.) degree qualifies students to take on highly technical tasks (based on engineering metrology, surveying, computer science, digital humanities) in the field of heritage and heritage preservation, in galleries, museums, libraries and and archives and in cultural management at home and abroad.
It enables the evaluation of problems and independent solution of technical and structural-process-related problems in object and damage recording, data archiving, technical building condition and object analysis, the planning of repair and preservation measures as well as the development of intelligent monitoring concepts.
Graduates of the new degree programme have good prospects of carrying out application-oriented projects in practice, being involved in the management of data collections and exchange platforms and helping to shape the future standards and development directions of integrative heritage technologies in public administration, companies and science.
Skills will be valuable in many professional fields, including:
- Private sector: surveying, building research and planning offices (e.g. building in existing contexts, structural design, building physics in monument preservation), own service office
- Specialist authorities (e.g. monuments offices, building authorities)
- Museums and archives
- Research and science (e.g. Fraunhofer Institute, EURAC Institute, etc)

Doctorate
The Master's degree M.Sc. entitles you to do a doctorate at a university, or in a joint project between a university and a university of applied sciences, e.g. in Digital Technologies in Heritage Conservation, if you achieve a suitable grade. An individual doctoral programme at the University of Bamberg is supported by the Trimberg Research Academy unterstützt (TRAC).
