The Graduate School of Creative Arts and Media (GradCAM)
The Graduate School of Creative Arts and Media (GradCAM) is an exciting new collaborative initiative of national and all-island significance which builds on the expertise of the National College of Art & Design (NCAD), the Dublin Institute of Technology (DIT), the University of Ulster (UU), and the Institute of Art, Design and Technology, D�n Laoghaire (IADT). These institutions are working in close collaboration with each other and with a range of national and international networks to realise the Graduate School. The School is a shared space of structured doctoral studies and research support - what has come to be known as "fourth-level" education; the School is a centre for creative research development; the School is a framework for critical interdisciplinary dialogue; and the School operates as a permeable institution of enquiry that facilitates, promotes and leads the interaction between cultural practice, educational practice and the everyday world of work and innovation beyond the academy. The School is funded through the Programme for Research in Third-Level Institutions (PRTLI). Find out more about the specific mission and institutional remit of the School here.
