Course summary

Research in Digital Media at the University of Hull is wide-ranging, interdisciplinary and multidisciplinary, covering topics as diverse as immersive design, narrative and animation, human-computer interaction, games design and development, commercial design and visual communication. By employing real-world approaches, we develop projects that contribute to the creative economy nationally and internationally and offer practical components that drive research and innovations in cultural and creative industries. We support students' development into articulate and critical thinkers who are acutely aware of how their work engages with current scholarship, new and emerging technology, social issues and debates within the contemporary media culture landscape. As a design and arts discipline, we do not expect high levels of technical proficiency in our researchers however a willingness to engage with advanced digital technologies is paramount. Some applicants are digital specialists and others are specialists in other areas that overlap with digital design from diverse domains including journalism, psychology, film-making and graphics. During the three-year PhD programme (five years part-time) you will research and write a dissertation of 70,000 to 100,000 words on a topic chosen in conjunction with your supervisor.
