Competence Centre Description
The Department of CMCR was established in the year 1999/2000 at the Faculty of Archaeology and Anthropology to meet the growing needs of highly trained and skilful people in the fields of cultural resources management, conservation, applied sciences and museology. The Department has started with a master program in cultural resources management which attracted students from Jordan and other countries in the region and worldwide. The Department adopts an interdisciplinary approach in teaching its programs and therefore it cooperates with other departments at the university such as Chemistry, Geology, Business Administration, Marketing, Economics, Anthropology, Archaeology, Museology, Epigraphy, and Modern Languages.
