Summary
This practice-based Anthropology, Media and Performance PhD programme will see you carry out an extensive piece of research in the field.
Jointly managed by the Drama department and the Granada Centre for Visual Anthropology /Social Anthropology, this programme begins with a year of academic formation and preliminary training in research methods and relevant craft techniques, before you carry out your project on the basis of field research of up to a year's duration.
In the third year, you will be expected to return to Manchester and prepare the presentation of your results in textual or other media, as appropriate.
Aims
We aim to:
-
introduce you to potential interdisciplinary combinations of anthropology, applied theatre/performance studies and media production so you can produce original knowledge in one or more of these academic fields;
-
introduce cutting-edge theories and self-reflexive, critical research practice in all these fields;
-
train you in a range of practical field research methods and media production skills to enable you to carry out the year-long fieldwork that is an integral and necessary aspect of the second year of the programme. These skills will also allow you to produce a combination of written dissertation and media and/or performance practice;
-
make you aware of the legal and ethical implications of your work and of the appropriate procedures for ensuring ethical clearance of your research;
-
encourage you to develop a range of transferable skills. This includes areas such as IT and AV media, as well as presentational, writing, team-working and foreign language skills.
