The Research Training Programme (RTP) enables students and staff to learn together in both formal and informal settings. The programme comprises of:

• disciplinary perspectives on research methodologies
• research governance and core skills
• professional and personal development
• student-led activities

There are sessions that run every Wednesday and the full programme is available on Moodle. 

Hosted by the Performance Research Cluster at Manchester School of Theatre, Bunker Talks invite artists and staff at Manchester School of Art to talk about who they are and what they do. A space for critical encounters, presentations, provocation and dialogue, Bunker Talks are linked by a line of enquiry into geo-political, ecological or economic concerns. During the past year they have moved online to explore how artists and researchers continue to make and share their work.
