Master of Research RCA MRes - Fine Arts

Transform your research and practice in architecture, communication, design, fine art or the experimental humanities. This programme will be based in Battersea for Academic Year 202526, which begins in September 2025. Conduct meaningful research across architecture, communication, design, fine art and the experimental humanities. Learn from research-active practitioners who will share their interests and expertise as historians, curators, designers and artists. Our interdisciplinary space is one of freedom, risk, and experimentation. Disciplines are traversed. Possibilities are explored. Hierarchies are critiqued. Knowledge is not only amassed but shared. Joining us, you’ll ask, ‘what is research’ and explore what it brings to creative practice across writing and making. Our Master of Research RCA brings together students from architecture, communication, design, fine art and the experimental humanities to transform their research and practice in dialogue with other disciplines. When applying, you choose a specialism, which will be your central discipline. You will be assigned an expert supervisor for closer supervision of your research project.
