Overview
Creative Arts practitioners and researchers design and undertake specific discipline studies or hybrid projects based on their research interests within practice-led or theoretical fields. This course allows the student researcher to critically reflect on the positioning of their creative works within established theoretical and practical models providing a context for understanding for the student鈥檚 creative field of expertise.
Students will undertake advanced research in either practice-led or theoretical pathways - developing skills and understanding of practice through intensive studio work on an individual project. This practice is directly related to, or complements the research undertaken in SCA4000 Honours Dissertation B.
