Dear List,
And, talking of money, these part-time or full-time studentships come with a maintenance grant, and are a pretty good deal for those wishing to further their practice through research and their research through practice …
Please note that these studentships have some UK residency requirements - see AHRC's Student Funding Guide pages 92 – 98. http://www.ahrc.ac.uk/SiteCollectionDocuments/Student-Funding-Guide.pdf
This year, in addition to Curating New Media art, we also have Design opportunities, which can include Curating Design, and Generative/Open Source subjects. Current students include Suzy O’Hara, Dani Admiss (former Assistant Curator on Digital Revolution, Barbican) and Liam Jefferies (MA Design RCA).
