M4C Collaborative Doctoral Award

CDAs are co-designed between an M4C university and an external partner organisation. CDAs offer a project with established research aims, responding to particular needs in the cultural, creative and heritage sectors. The supervisory teams are pre-established and are made up of academics from a Midlands4Cities university and a member of the external partner organisation.

A Collaborative Doctoral Award allows you to:

• produce a quality thesis under expert academic and partner supervision
• gain first-hand experience of partner organisations outside the university environment
• enhance employability and skills
