Industrial Heritage and Archaeology—MS, PhD at Michigan Technological University

The master's or doctoral in industrial archaeology degree program positions you to work at a cultural resource management firm, an archive or museum, for government agencies like the park or forest service, or for non-profit heritage organizations. We investigate the remains of industry to understand the legacies of industrial society. Students pursue interdisciplinary, innovative research that focuses on postindustrial regions and communities struggling with the social and material consequences of industrial decline. If you are driven by a passionate curiosity for industrial communities, landscapes, technology systems, or workplaces, join the leaders at Michigan Tech to unearth and preserve our collective heritage.
