We also benefit from a dedicated on-site library with librarian support.
Research Active Staff
We have an active and exciting research culture, with many staff exhibiting and publishing work to an international audience. Our staff's research encompasses art and design media specialisms, practice methodologies and theoretical perspectives in four interdisciplinary themes: (im)materiality; embodiment, narrative and performance practice; everyday objects, habitus and thingness; and place, space and site. Narrative Drawing and Design Thinking are expanding areas of research activity and expertise within the department.
