城市和建筑保护硕士

MUBC计划的实施已有25年了，人们越来越意识到保护建筑物和市区的建筑遗产在文化，社会和经济上的重要性。在这个国家和国际上，对维护和管理构成社会物质文化的各种建筑物所需的知识和技能的需求在不断增长。我们还看到了立法环境的发展，使爱尔兰批准了《欧洲保护建筑遗产公约》。现在，人们期望对历史建筑的照顾将达到最高的国际标准。建筑物的保护以及城镇和城市区域的保护是不同但相关的问题。他们对专业知识和技能有共同的要求，通常需要一系列学科的协作，并对每个学科的理论框架和知识库有特殊要求。
The twenty-five years of the MUBC programme's existence have seen a growing awareness of the cultural, social and economic importance of conserving the built heritage of buildings and urban areas. In this country and internationally, there is a growing demand for the knowledge and skills required to maintain and manage the wide range of buildings that form the material culture of society. We have also seen the development of the legislative environment, giving effect to Ireland's ratification for the Convention for the Protection of the Architectural Heritage Europe. There is now an expectation that the care of historic buildings will meet the highest international standards. The conservation of buildings and the conservation of towns and urban areas are distinct but related concerns. They share a requirement for specialist knowledge and skills, usually require the collaboration of a range of disciplines, and make special demands on the theoretical frameworks and knowledge base of each discipline.<br><br>The programme in Urban and Building Conservation was established in UCD in 1986 in recognition of the growing need for expertise in architectural conservation. It forms part of a broad-ranging programme in UCD Architecture which seeks to prepare students and the profession for changing roles in architecture, and particularly, for an enlarging role in the rehabilitation and restoration of buildings and towns. UCD Architecture has taken on the responsibility of creating a centre of expertise for the study of conservation in Ireland. The MUBC programme attracts professionals from both private and public offices. Its participants have included architects, urban and regional planners, engineers, archaeologists, surveyors, historians and other associated disciplines.
