We are a research-intensive unit with a vibrant research culture within and across the disciplines above, along with collaborations with a wide range of external partners. REF2021 saw us being ranked alongside leading UK research-intensive university and conservatoire departments. We were placed joint first in the UK for research impact, in addition to our research environment being recognised as 100% ‘world-leading’ and ‘internationally excellent’, with more than half of our publications and practice-based outputs rated within these top two categories. Our collaborative grouping of music, drama, film/screen and heritage contributes to a vibrant research culture which encompasses both theory and practice, as well as interdisciplinary opportunities.
Applicants should hold, or expect to obtain, a First or Upper Second Class Honours Degree in a subject relevant to the proposed area of study. We may also consider applications from those who hold equivalent qualifications, for example, a Lower Second Class Honours Degree plus a Masters Degree with Distinction. In exceptional circumstances, the University may consider a portfolio of evidence from applicants who have appropriate professional experience which is equivalent to the learning outcomes of an Honours degree in lieu of academic qualifications.
