Information for TPTI Visiting Scholars
Visiting scholars
TPTI is a high-quality European Master Course which is developed in the framework of the Erasmus Mundus program.
Dialogue is the keyword in the TPTI master; it applies to historical and heritage studies, archaeology and economics as well as crafts and industry. TPTI facilitates the full and practical understanding of crafts and industrial technical culture.
During their period of study in TPTI, students learn how to develop a restoration project of an industrial heritage site; they must take into account its own historical and cultural value, thus guaranteeing both environmental and economic sustainability.
The TPTI consortium is welcoming scholars possessing an outstanding academic and/or professional experience, bringing concrete added value to the delivery of the Erasmus Mundus Master Course.
Scholars are selected for the relevance of their work which should be innovative, original and interdisciplinary.
