What if you could shape the future of the past through technical expertise, cultural awareness and innovative thinking?

On La Salle-URL's Master's Degree in Integrated Construction Management, specialising in Heritage Rehabilitation and Restoration, you will combine advanced technical knowledge with a contemporary approach to heritage conservation.

You will learn how to intervene in existing buildings by integrating sustainability, efficiency and respect for their historical value, working with up-to-date methodologies and in close connection with the professional realities of the sector.

At La Salle-URL, you will develop a holistic perspective that brings together architecture, engineering and project management, enabling you to lead rehabilitation and restoration projects with real impact: preserving the identity of the past while responding to the needs of the present and the future.

The rehabilitation of the existing building stock has become one of the key responses to today's environmental and urban challenges, prioritising reuse over new construction. As a result, heritage has become a strategic asset in delivering a more sustainable built environment.

The integration of energy efficiency and sustainability criteria into historic buildings is now essential, incorporating solutions that improve building performance without compromising their cultural or architectural value.

At the same time, digitalisation, emerging technologies and the growing demand for multidisciplinary professionals are reshaping the sector, driving more precise, collaborative and future-focused approaches to intervention.

Why study at La Salle? 

Because the world needs professionals who do more than adapt. It needs professionals who question, explore and transform. 

Learning through real-world challenges 

You will work on real projects and practical scenarios that prepare you for professional practice from day one. 

A transdisciplinary ecosystem 

You will collaborate with students and professionals from architecture, engineering, technology and business, developing the ability to work across disciplines in complex environments. 

Technology with purpose 

You will apply innovation, data and digital tools to create meaningful impact on society and the built environment. 

Strong industry connections 

You will engage with professionals, companies and live projects that bring you closer to the realities and demands of today's construction sector. 

Barcelona as a living laboratory 

You will study in one of Europe's leading cities for architecture, innovation and urban transformation.
