Art and Social Practice is a broad term. It is inclusive of any form of arts practice seeking to engage or intervene in social, educational and community contexts. Our pioneering PhD Art and Social Practice is designed for people who want to undertake advanced research which builds on their professional knowledge and practice. Professional practice may include: - applied practice, - arts and health, - community arts, - performing arts, - other related contexts across visual and creative media The structure of the programme is devised to enable you to develop your career while simultaneously undertaking a research project that leads to a doctoral qualification. This professional practice-focused doctorate will engage experienced professionals in advanced research. This programme matches the need for structured forms of professional development and reflective practice across the arts sector. We take explicit account of the professional practice-base of the student, integrating this as a central knowledge base for the research project. We support the development of dynamic knowledge outcomes that can have an impact across academic and non-academic contexts. Furthermore, we underpin the development of reflective practice. This practice can respond to and influence the complex, unpredictable and shifting social and cultural contexts in which arts practitioners operate. The programme will introduce you to a range of dynamic and challenging concepts and methods. These methods enable you to reflect critically and constructively on your professional practice. Another feature is the opportunity to join a cohort of peers on other professional practice PhD programmes. Our students will have the ability engage with other research professionals through bi-annual residential workshops and events.
