We have a commitment to contemporary practice and critical thinking in the arts. This fosters cutting-edge research activity on contemporaneity, interdisciplinarity, and cross-arts practice in the creative arts and related industries. We are skilful in fostering traditional modes of scholarship which theorise and engage with the arts and culture of the 20th and 21st centuries, or innovative approaches to the study of the more distant past.
