About Frontier Innovation University

Affordable US innovation university in Austin, Texas.

Overview

University of Brigant’s MA Heritage and Cultural Management is for people who already juggle condition reports, festival risk, and the politics of who gets to interpret Scotland in a gallery or a close. Based in Edinburgh with a tuition-free online twin, the degree treats heritage as operations: collections care, visitor flow, funding, and community objection—not as a creative-writing course with a castle in the background. You will write a collections or events paper that a trustee can interrogate, read listing and planning interfaces without pretending to be a conservation architect, and keep dual-pathway parity. No invented royal warrants and no fake institutional logos.

Delivered on campus in Austin with in-person seminars, library access, and student services.

**Award:** Frontier Innovation University **Credits:** 36 | **Typical duration:** 2 years (18 months)
