The Research Institute provides a dynamic and supportive environment for postgraduate study and research. Research students are encouraged to participate in all research activities of the Institute, from attending and giving papers at research seminars to taking part in academic events beyond the University, and are supported through the provision of shared office space, IT equipment and funding to support some travel and other expenses. There are thriving and energetic undergraduate and MRes programmes and a significant number of staff conducting Film Studies research at Keele. Follow this link for details. Staff in Film Studies have established regional and national collaborative working relationships with other scholars. Students on the Film Studies programme are encouraged to participate in the development and maintenance of the events, publications and workshops which constitute Keele’s vibrant Film Studies culture.
