Film and TV staff can supervise MPhil and PhD study, including practice-led research, in a wide range of areas, including:
- contemporary British, European, Hong Kong, Hollywood and American independent cinema

There are opportunities for part-time teaching on the Department's undergraduate programmes for postgraduates with appropriate skills.
Awards are available from the Arts and Humanities Research Board, and other funding bodies. Some of these funding packages cover tuition fees (at UK/EU rates) and living expenses for the duration of study; others cover the fees, or contribute in other ways towards the cost of study. In addition a number of School bursaries (awarded by competition) meet some of the costs of fees in the first year of study.
