Abstract
This paper is focused on the origins and development of the Postgraduate course on Conservation and Restoration of Photographs, an international programme with a highly specialized character, held for the first time in 2008 at the Escuela Nacional de Conservación, Restauración y Museografía (ENCRyM), Instituto Nacional de Antropología e Historia (INAH). The relevance of the programme within the academic, professional and job-oriented scopes are reviewed and discussed, along with an analysis of the achievements and limitations encountered during the first year the program was run. This evaluation leads to new proposals regarding the future of the postgraduate curricula at the ENCRyM as well as the conservation and restoration of photographs in Mexico as a distinct discipline.
