What Others Say About Us

An intensive and efficient underwater photogrammetry course that can be applied everywhere, opens up a lot of space for investment and progres, and gives crazy ideas.
After completion of the photogrammetry course, no old-fashioned model will make sense anymore.

At ICUA Zadar conservation course I gained basic knowledge about the conservation and restoration of underwater artifacts.
I recommend it to all underwater archaeologists who want to acquire new skills in the conservation field!

I have personally very successful cooperation with Zadar UNESCO Centre for Underwater Archaeology for many years. Furthermore, as a director of the Centre for Underwater Archaeology at Nicolaus Copernicus University in Torun, Poland I have to confirm that we highly benefited from cooperation with Zadar UNESCO centre during the projects conducted in Poland and Croatia.

Since 1994 we are working in close cooperation with the ICUA team on different underwater archaeological sites like Hvar, Brioni, Vestar, Veliki Piruzi and Velika Sestrica. During this time we not only learned much from each other on a scientific level, but also strong friendships were forged. We look forward to continuing our constant cooperation and to all the projects still to come.

Two restoration courses that I have achieved at ICUA Zadar were very useful for me in a professional sense, they also resulted in continuous cooperation with my dear colleagues from Zadar. I am always happy when we have the opportunity to cooperate on a project!

After you have completed the underwater archaeology course, you will be observing each coast as an object of research and along the way, most likely, you will discover all kinds of historical stories about that area.

All the employees of the Centre are very happy to respond to volunteer actions of cleaning the seabed and accompanying lectures and workshops that we organize for the purpose of raising the ecological awareness of citizens in their free time!

During my participation in underwater archaeological research I was personally convinced that the courses they stage for participants from all over the world are very detailed and high-quality work, they teach them about absolutely all segments of required knowledge in the technical and scientific sense that are needed in order to continue working successfully on similar researches and lead them independently!

I am very happy that I've had the opportunity to experience honestly an important and beautiful experience through participation in the basic underwater archaeology course. Transferring knowledge to future generations in such a professional institution is valuable for all of us. As an active diver with over 35 years of experience this is the best thing I have ever done. For a short time I was part of a team that takes care of our underwater heritage and for the betterment of future generations.

ICUA Zadar team has trained a number of people and thereby significantly helped in building capacity for underwater archaeology in the entire Adriatic region. Invaluable contribution, extremely well organized courses and a great team which always supports the participants even after the course is finished. The cooperation with ICUA Zadar is always a great pleasure for me.
