- About us
Here, in the Department of English, we provide doctoral supervision on a range of place-related creative, critical, and creative-critical projects.
We also encourage our PhD students to play a full part in the increasingly energetic postgraduate research culture within the Centre, which includes presenting at the multiple place writing events held throughout the year, both on and off campus. Furthermore we extend our expertise to workshops and summer schools, both in Manchester and internationally with a planned Summer School of Place Writing in Barbados (a collaboration with the English Department at the University of the West Indies, which aims to take place in 2021.
For further information about our particular interests, then please take a look at our staff profiles.
