Online only
University of Brigant’s MA Museum, Archive and Digital Collections is for people who already live with catalogue backlogs, fragile paper, and the politics of putting Scotland online. Edinburgh campus or tuition-free online, one standard, with library-parity questions built in so distance students are not locked out of licensed content. You will not be trained as a conservator. You will design access, rights, and digital-preservation literacy. No national-collection logos as endorsement. Dual-pathway students must receive lawful digital surrogates or honest statements that a module cannot run without a licence purchase. The MA is not a conservator or ARA ticket.
Interactive modules, weekly readings, recorded and live seminars, and collaborative discussions with peers worldwide.
Module assignments, proctored examinations, and capstone projects designed to demonstrate mastery of the field.
Modules are assessed through a published mix of coursework, applied projects, and examinations. Exam windows are announced in advance so students in other time zones are not forced into overnight sittings. Alternative arrangements are available where documented.
The published duration is 18 months. Teaching language: English (dual pathway: Edinburgh campus or tuition-free online; one academic standard). Actual time-to-complete depends on mode and any recognised prior learning.
This is a fully online award. You study from your country. No student visa and no campus relocation are required.
Degree tuition for this award is published as £0 / tuition-free on the online pathway. Examination or administrative fees may apply at checkout — never an annual tuition invoice. Check the Fees page for any extras.
Requirements are grouped on this page (academic, English, documents). Equivalent qualifications are considered. English may be waived after prior English-medium study.
Assessment is typically a mix of coursework, projects, and examinations. Doctoral awards include a thesis or dissertation and an oral examination. Details sit in the programme specification and module outlines.
Recognition of the award for local employment, professional licence, or ministry attestation is decided by your employer or regulator. Pulse College publishes verification pages for certificates. We do not claim automatic equivalence in every country.
