Study type Research

Summary

Postgraduate students are supervised via a research team through regular meetings. Research supervision draws on wide staff interests in North American, European, and Latin American cinemas, offering opportunities to study projects based in aesthetic, conceptual and historical perspectives on film and digital media, as well as practice by research. For further details, see staff research interests.

Research students participate in a series of regular events. These include work-in-progress seminars and professional development workshops, both of which are organised at School level. You are also able to enrol on the Graduate School’s Researcher Development Programme.

Our research students also actively participate in a research seminar, which brings leading scholars and practitioners to Kent. We also hold an annual postgraduate presentation day.

Our PhD candidates are pursuing ground-breaking work within the School and our Research Centres and many of our former students have been appointed to academic posts in some of the most prestigious national and international Universities, including UCL, Birkbeck, Queen's University, and the Universities of Queensland, Lethbridge, Bournmouth, Coimbra, Lancaster, British Columbia, Leicester, and South Wales.
