Course summary

This PhD enables students to incorporate practice into their doctoral study taking an approach which understands practice as a mode of research or as the application of research.

Course overview

The project must be led by clear research questions with the practice element working as a means to investigate challenge or respond to those questions. The practice element can take a variety of forms and proportions (with a minimum of 30% and a maximum of 50%) but in all cases represents the exploration of critical theoretical or historical issues in Film and Television/Screen Studies through a practice-based output.

The various forms of this applied screen practice include but are not limited to:

§

A critical video essay

§

A moving image and/or audio documentary or experimental film

§

Curated screenings/an exhibition of creative works or artefacts

§

A digital installation

§

An innovative collaboration with a partner institution

§

An engagement and impact project at regional national or international level

The balance between written and practical elements in this PhD will depend on the form that the applied practice takes. Those making a documentary for example might produce a 40000 word written piece that would represent 50% of their PhD.

Those pursuing a more traditional research-driven written doctoral project would produce a 55000 word thesis and an 'applied research' portfolio which translates the research into a set of screen-based impact and public engagement activities. This element would then represent 30% of the PhD.

At the mid-year review in Year One the student presents a case for the percentage split of their particular project between traditional written thesis and practice work and is also the point at which the particular form the practice element will take is agreed.
