The
mission of the Heritage Studies
program is to produce heritage
professionals with the knowledge
and skills needed to support
the identification, assessment,
preservation, interpretation,
management, and promotion of
historic and cultural resources
for non-specialist or public
audiences. The program is interdisciplinary,
using multiple academic perspectives
to explore and understand the
interrelationships of history
and culture in a distinctive
region, the Mississippi River
Delta. While universal in scope
and method, the Heritage Studies
doctoral program uses the distinctive
heritages, attributes, resources
and cultures of the Mississippi
River Delta as its laboratory
of study.
