Laboratories & Disciplines
The University of Delaware campus in Newark, Delaware, houses two history of technology studios, a photographic materials and conservation laboratory, and administrative offices. Students have access to objects from the University Museums, that contain archeological and ethnographic materials, a diversity of Western European medieval to contemporary works, a large collection of gems and minerals, and the Paul R. Jones Collection of African Art .
Twenty-six conservation studios, laboratories, examination rooms, and workshops in the Winterthur Research Building (15 miles north of the University of Delaware) are used by faculty and students in the Master’s program. The Winterthur Scientific Research and Analysis Laboratory is equipped with state-of-the-art analytical instrumentation. Our students have regular access to Winterthur’s internationally recognized collections—nearly 100,000 American decorative art objects housed in 180 period room settings and an associated exhibition building—as well as a comprehensive American material culture library, rare books and collections, and a slide library.
