Research

Research and teaching are both core activities at Victoria, but it is research in particular that distinguishes a university from any other tertiary institution. Research is at the heart of what we do.  The School of English, Film, Theatre, and Media Studies has an active culture of creative and scholarly research within and across its four disciplines. Our research is recognised both nationally and internationally for its quality and originality, and it informs the undergraduate and postgraduate teaching in our subject areas. Our staff publish a wide variety of books and book chapters, monographs, scholarly editions, articles, edited collections, reports and conference papers. In addition to these traditional modes of research and publication, the School's research culture is exhibited in the creative forms of performance, film, broadcasts, and creative literature.

Further information on staff research can be found on our staff profile pages.

As part of our commitment to research, we welcome applications from graduate students who want to study towards a Master's or PhD degree. Postgraduate students form an integral part of our vibrant research culture; thesis topics of our current students can be found under student profiles.
