ABOUT THE PROGRAMME
The Dubrovnik study programme in Conservation and Restoration is based on a state-of-the-art technical, technological, expert and scientific knowledge in conservation and restauration, which is taught to students by numerous professors and experts. The programme is founded on a very much needed broad theoretical basis with focus on practical student work.
