The Graduate Research School deals with enquiries about research-led postgraduate study at eca. Formal applications for postgraduate study must be submitted to the Academic Registry.
Profile
My primary research interests are Scottish culture (visual or otherwise) and contemporary British cinemas. I also write regularly on contemporary world cinema for a range of international publications. In particular, I have published widely on Scottish film culture past and present. In addition to teaching and research activities pursued in conjunction with colleagues within eca, I also work closely with a range of cognate bodies in Scotland, the UK and the Republic of Ireland to disseminate research and knowledge in my areas of expertise.
