Part of the University of the Arts London, the TrAIN Research Centre is a
forum for historical, theoretical, and practice-based research in the
arts; its focus is the impact of identity and nation on the production and
consumption of artworks and artefacts in an increasingly complex period of
globalisation.

By addressing how the movement of people and artefacts breaks down borders
and produces new identities beyond those of the nation state TrAIN aims to
contribute to both creativity and cultural understanding.

TrAIN involves internationally recognised scholars and practitioners based
at three UAL colleges: Camberwell College of Arts, Chelsea College of Art
&amp; Design and Central Saint Martins College of Art &amp; Design. We
support a programme of regular public and pedagogical events; previous
guest speakers have included Ricardo Basbaum, Guy Brett, TJ Demos, Charles
Esche, Kobena Mercer and Gilane Tawadros.

TrAIN is now accepting applications for an MA programme that is aimed at
exploring the transnational and its impact on the practice, history and
theory of art and design (commencing Sept. 2007).

This is an MA by independent project. As a prospective student you can
apply with a practice-based project - or you can apply with a proposal for
a solely written research project. Practice-based students may have their
studio/practice component based at one of the existing art and design MA
programmes at Camberwell College of Arts as relevant to their proposal:
Book Arts; Conservation; Digital Arts; Drawing; Graphic Design;
Illustration; and Printmaking.

Individual study is complemented by seminars, lectures, tutorials and
workshops designed to help you develop wider contextual understanding,
research skills and awareness of professional issues. Specialist lectures
are delivered by the scholars and practitioners attached to the TrAIN
research centre, and are organised under themes including: Exhibiting the
Nation; Identity, Authenticity and Materials; and Migration and the
Context of the Transnational. A series on Methodologies of the
Transnational provides the necessary tools for the production of your
final submission. The MA is a qualification in its own right; it also
supports students through the process of applying for a further research
degree, therefore offering an emphasis and structure tailored to students
interested in commencing MPhil or PhD research immediately after
completion of an MA.
