By the end of the course you will have a clear sense of your own practice and how this can be employed across a range of work settings.
Applicant profile
You will be an inquisitive and experimental inter-disciplinarian who understands the need for us to develop new ways of working to develop new knowledge. You will be both self-motivated and enjoy working in multi-discipline creative teams, willing to take risks, learn new communication methods and break new ground. On entry to this course you will be required to apply with a research project proposal that will form the starting point for the course. You will not be expected to have a clear end point in mind but to use your time on the course in a safe experimental environment where you can test your ideas to the full. You will be asked to apply with a portfolio of your practice. This could be submitted on CD, DVD, or web-based. Candidates will be interviewed either in person or through internet communication systems.
