Masters of Preservation Studies Program at Tulane is the firsat to come to mind.

Also, U of F has a fairly long running and developed program I believe. With a particular focus on Caribbean and Nantucket/North Atlantic area...

Columbia university is where Historic preservation education program started in the US

Tulane has a great program.

How is this track of architecture ranked? Wouldn't a school like Auburn offer it as well? Did you check them out?

i wouldn't auburn really has a historic preservation focus. if you look at the rural studio work, you'll have a sense of the sort of design approach auburn teaches.

what about university of miami?

Visit the National Council for Preservation Education for list of HP programs.

@JMANGANELLI: What about the University of Miami? I know nothing of their program, but to my understanding are focused on classical architecture. Am I wrong?

I think I read that Elizabeth Plater-Zyberk of Duany Plater-Zyberk has taught at the school for a long time and that the school has been influenced by the practice of DPZ. New Urbanism is not the same as historic preservation. But I would say there are certain sympathies between the two interests, particularly in understanding traditional and vernacular building techniques, forms, styles and urban design. So it seemed to me that Miami may be worth a look.

When you say 'classical', i think of notre dame's school of architecture. I don't know if miami has a classical focus.

i had also heard that tulane is has a strong focus in this area.

my initial comment up above should have been, "i wouldn't say auburn really has a historic preservation focus.
