Following a review of options for RCA/V&A Conservation, and as a result of the Victoria and Albert Museum’s reassessment of priorities and its commitment to our partnership in conservation, there will be no further recruitment of students to RCA/V&A Conservation.
The College will continue to support the studies of existing students and provide them with a learning experience that meets the RCA standards of excellence. Conservation students are now administered within the School of Humanities, and former Conservation staff attend College on a visiting basis. The Conservation Department will be closed formally when there are no longer any registered Conservation students actively pursuing their studies within the College.
