The study of the physical state of historic monuments – the main content of the first and decisive stage in the process of their conservation, is a frequently treated topic in two distinct areas: scientific research and university courses. Can the two be combined to their mutual benefit? This paper examines a specific part of this question: whether students’ output on completion of their courses can be used by scientists and conservationists in material deterioration study and research on historic monuments. An approach applicable to non‐conservational curricula is outlined in brief, with a view to narrowing the existing gap between educational tradition and the needs of contemporary conservation.
