MSc Heritage Visualisation

Haldane Building, 4 students

Heritage Visualisation is a specialist pathway of the MSc in Visualisation. MSc Heritage Visualisation aims to develop the knowledge and skill required to conduct and disseminate digital documentation of our heritage, both tangible and intangible, and to combine heritage practice with state of the art digital technologies, such as digital recording, digital reconstruction, interaction and visualisation design, as well as a host of virtual and augmented reality technologies.

This pathway enables students to understand the process of creating original digital datasets of cultural objects and sites, to present immersive visualisations with interactive narratives, and design novel means to foster broad audience engagement and multi-disciplinary study.

Students explore a rich range of approaches by which modern digital technologies can allow us to appreciate the past in different ways, and this year’s cohort is no exception – from storytelling with digital games or augmented reality and papercraft, to exploring the use of audio in digital heritage environments.
