Research Degrees
A research degree provides an opportunity to pursue an in-depth research project in an individually defined subject area where the College can provide appropriately qualified supervision in collaboration with the other colleges of University of the Arts London. There is research activity in all of the subject areas in which the College is involved, including:
- Fashion and Sustainability
- Fashion Design Technology
- Fashion and Textiles Design
- Cultural and Historical Studies in Fashion and Textiles

Research students' study is self-directed but they are expected to work conscientiously and independently within the parameters and guidance offered by supervisors and the College.
