Subject: Postgraduate Bursary Opportunity
The Leeds School of Contemporary Art and Graphic Design
Leeds Metropolitan University
Research Bursary M.Phil/PhD
Two-years full-time (M.Phil) + 1 year full-time (PhD)
Full fees (EU students), research costs paid and bursary stipend of £8000
per year.
Interdisciplinary Practice in Art and Design
Applications are invited from a graduate artist to undertake a research
bursary at the Leeds School of Contemporary Art and Graphic Design at Leeds
Metropolitan University, leading toward the award of M.Phil. or PhD.
The focus of the research will be on contemporary creative culture with an
interdisciplinary emphasis. We are interested, for example, in artists who
work with text and sound as well as the visual, and in the use of creative
strategies that combine manual and digital means of production.
Candidates are invited to propose a suitable research project within these
parameters that would lead to the award of an M.Phil. by the end of the
two-year contract. Where appropriate and on the basis of satisfactory
progress, the research student may transfer the registration to PhD for a
third bursaried year.

can be viewed at http://www.lmu.ac.uk/hen/aad/artdesresearch/
The successful candidate will contribute to the research culture of the
School and work closely with a recently appointed Research Fellow who is
concerned with immaterial practices in contemporary visual culture and their
curation in a variety of forms. The research will be supervised by expert
staff in the School of Contemporary Art and Graphic Design at Leeds
Metropolitan University.
