Course programme
Research at the MPhil level represents an extension of existing knowledge. Most students enrol first for the MPhil and transfer to the PhD when their work has sufficiently developed. However, it is possible to enrol directly onto the PhD course if you are appropriately qualified.
In addition to the research specialisms of our teaching staff, we are currently seeking applications for PhDs in the following broad fields and areas:
Media arts, art and design history and cultural history.
Adaptation studies, film studies, genre studies, popular fiction
Media history and theory, photography history and theory, media and photography practice
Media studies, branding, public relations, television, news and journalism
Filmmaking, film theory, screen studies, gallery and museum studies.
