artsmethods@manchester/ www.artsmethods.manchester.ac.uk

artsmethods@manchester is a programme of talks, workshops and events running throughout the year that explore approaches to arts research and the breadth of methodological expertise in arts and languages at the University of Manchester. artsmethods also works closely with cultural partners across Manchester and the North West to enhance the impact and dissemination of arts and languages research. The website contains useful resources both at the University of Manchester and nationwide.
Regular methods, cultural and research-related events are held through the year, including:
Workshops: which provide short, accessible introductory guides to key research methods and approaches to disseminating research. They are ideal for research students, or their supervisors, who want to find out what the method does and whether it might be useful in their research. Information from the workshops, together with more information about the topic, can be found on the website: www.artsmethods.manchester.ac.uk/

Events: which highlight the research opportunities that AHRC-funded resources for arts and languages researchers offer. Methods workshops focus on particular methods and provide an opportunity for discussion, exchange and to share best practice.

Come and talk to us!
