Studies on the interdisciplinary field of Cultural Heritage and
Science/Technology offer the great potential of a modern and
balanced educational syllabus; they also produce an ideal platform
for holistic approaches that are guaranteed by the creative mixing
of up-to-date methodologies with archaeological science,
archaeometry and cultural heritage technologies.

CultTech operates within the Peloponnese, an advanced natural and
cultural environment that hosts plethora of historical,
archaeological sites and monuments.  A key issue for CultTech is its
orientation towards hands-on research thus offering post-graduate
research training and the potential of the implementation of a
diploma dissertation closely related or within ongoing research
projects.

The programme is oriented from the Department of History,
Archaeology and Cultural Resources Management
