Postgrad art-practice-based researchers face complex, fast-changing structures and methodological debates. These materials aim to help students through this process. We hope to encourage a flexible hybrid approach which we call 'hybrid rigour'.

Students at Sunderland can utilise the art-practice research collection in the short-loan section of Ashburne House Library. There are also training sessions for ADM research students.

Please contact Beryl Graham for any feedback or comments.
