The University of Cambridge Museums has developed a collection of heritage science resources to help students develop the research skills needed for their EPQ and A-Level subjects.

The University of Cambridge Museums has developed a collection of heritage science resources to help students develop the research skills needed for their EPQ and A-Level subjects. There are five projects available and between them they demonstrate the different approaches to researching objects, paintings, or human remains. Each project teaches a range of skills, strategies, and methods which students can then apply to their own individual research projects. The five projects are called 1) The Twins 2) Ways of Seeing 3) Exploring Friendship 4) After the Plague 5) A Pair of Angels. Explore them all here.
