MRes Advanced Practices

The MRes in Advanced Practices responds to the growing importance of research within contemporary cultural production.Professionals and practitioners – be they artists, curators, choreographers, organisers, or others – engage in research and look for ways to circulate it widely. This 'research turn' has been a marked shift in recent years and is increasing in the wake of Covid-19 since audience numbers can no longer be a sole criterion for activity.The programme in Advanced Practices provides graduate students with an opportunity to invent methodologies, reframe urgencies and reimagine the contexts in which our work is circulating.The degree is practice-driven, research-based, and can incorporate projects in progress, collaborations with organisations and platforms, or be the opportunity to rethink the circulation and meaning of how and to whom work can communicate itself.
