We are now accepting applications for our 12 day visit of Athens. This is a thoughtful exploration of the history, preservation and conservation issues facing the city, organized around a series of lectures and visits led by some of the top Athenian archaeologists, architects, historians, conservators and planners who have been dealing with the problem of surveying, planning and preserving monuments and cultural heritage in the midst of a growing modern city.

The faculty of our program includes internationally renowned scholars, such as Dr. Manolis Korres, who was Chief Architect on the Acropolis Restoration Project, who will be leading lectures and visits to the Acropolis area, as well as Dr. Fani Mallouchou Tufano, an expert on the history of restoration and was director of the Documentation Office of the Acropolis RestorationService (recently president of “EUROPA NOSTRA”).

Please visit our website (scroll down for the Athens program) and syllabus to see a complete list of faculty, lectures and visits.

Whether you study History, Archaeology, Architecture Art History, Architecture, Urban Planning, Anthropology, Conservation and Historic Preservation, or anything in between, the IIRPS- Athens program's experience will be enhanced in ways you never thought possible by spending 12 days in Athens.
