UCA 2010 Research Conference

'Interdisciplinarity in the Creative Arts'

When: Friday 23 April 2010
Where: Wellcome Collection Conference Centre, London



The UCA Annual Staff Research Conference has been set up as a forum to explore current issues and context for research in the Creative Arts from external perspectives and institutional interests. It offers opportunities for exchange and dialogue about established and emergent research projects by staff and research students with leading international experts in the field.

This year's event is concerned with the concept and practices of Interdisciplinarity in the broadest sense. The thematic orientation is particularly pertinent as in recent times the term Interdisciplinarity has received a great emphasis within the academy and beyond.

  • David Sweeney, HEFCE
  • Helen Storey – London College of Fashion
  • Tony Ryan – University of Sheffield
  • Michael Naimark – University of Southern California (School of Cinematic Arts)
  • Siegfried Zielinski – Berlin University of the Arts
