The Centre for Print Research is the ideal place for PhD researchers seeking and contributing to global knowledge in multi-disciplinary print, encompassing the visual arts, photographic and print histories, crafts, science, cultural heritage and design fields.
A PhD is a research degree where you spend a significant amount of time investigating and analysing your chosen topic via a programme of self-directed study and taught research modules. Our supervisors have a strong track record of successful PhD and Mphil completions. Our doctoral programme provides a thriving intellectual community, with students from around the world. We are home to an expanding network of postgraduate researchers, engaged in a distinctive practice-based research culture. We are committed to the development and training of a new generation of interdisciplinary practitioner-researchers, who will critically engage across multiple disciplines.
The research team at CFPR provide a platform for diverse and challenging research aimed at making a mark in the scholarly, scientific and artistic communities. Although our research is primarily initiated from a visual perspective, it is inexorably linked to industrial development and new technologies and you will engage with a range of companies and institutions. We expect research students to take a full and active role in the Research Centre including taking part in regular workshops, conferences and seminars.
