In Cambridge School of Art there exists a vibrant and growing community of researchers at PhD level. In the area of film and TV production the topics for these PhD research degrees are linked to staff expertise together with student interests, and reflect the increasing potential of practice-based PhD studies. Informed by your particular discipline, you are asked to critically contextualise your work at a high level, clarify both the theoretical and practical research-based enquiries, and produce distinctive contributions to the research field.
Cambridge School of Art provides various forums that accentuate the discursive and interdisciplinary nature of research, including several research clusters which hold regular seminars and informal presentations for postgraduate and research students as well ArcDigital, and to the CoDE research institute.
