Creative Industries Futures

Programme Lead: Professor Gregg Whelan

How does creative practice respond to and shape the world around us? 

The development of new platforms, contexts and markets in the creative industries is led by practitioners seeking ever more dynamic and innovative routes to social, cultural and economic impact. This programme asks how do we apprehend, support and develop those contexts and practices, across a range of fields, interdisciplinary configurations and pedagogic frameworks, that are driving innovation and connecting research with society's challenges and opportunities.

We welcome applications for PhD or MPhil that align with the Creative Industries Futures programme.
