Postgraduate Affairs

Postgraduate affairs are overseen by the Head of Research and Postgraduate Development in collaboration with Heads of Faculty and through the Higher Awards Committee (a sub-committee of NCAD’s Academic Council).

The range and nature of postgraduate programmes at NCAD reflects the disciplinary specialisms and research orientation of the College, and is organised through NCAD’s four Faculties: Design, Education, Fine Art, Visual Culture.
