The Institute for Creative and Cultural Entrepreneurship (ICCE) at Goldsmiths provides a unique environment to study and research creative and cultural entrepreneurship, creative industries and allied areas such as cultural regeneration in cities, new models of musical theatre production or new applications of design or creative thinking.
We welcome proposals from people who wish to investigate, interrogate or create new types or approaches to business models appropriate for the creative economy. Current interests and studies being undertaken in ICCE include: 21st-century competencies, leadership of arts and cultural organisations, personalisation of the arts offer, and value and how to assess this in the creative industries.
All students are supervised by a full-time member of staff, generally agreed during the preliminary discussions regarding your research with the ICCE Director. PhD theses are up to a maximum of 100,000 words. PhD candidates registering as ‘practice as research’ are required to submit their practical work together with written material discussing the latter in approximately 50,000 words. A ‘practice as research’ PhD integrates practice and theoretical reflection. MPhil theses are normally 60,000 words or 30,000 words following the ‘practice as research’ route.
You should aim to complete and submit your PhD thesis within the timeframe specified by Goldsmiths. This is normally three to four years for full-time students and four to six years for part-time. A thesis for the award of MPhil may be submitted after two years of full-time or three years of part-time study. Registration can be changed from full-time to part-time status, and vice-versa, with the agreement of your supervisor. You will be required to complete the appropriate form for change of status available from the Registry or from the ICCE Administrator.

All students enrolled in the MPhil/PhD programme are initially required to attend a weekly seminar in research methodology conducted by the Goldsmiths Graduate School. These seminars are designed to bring together research students with diverse interests in a cooperative and stimulating environment. Its objectives include training students for the Spring Review Week, written and oral presentations, preparation for upgrading procedures and publication of articles.

Alternatively you can sit and pass an approved English Language test and achieve a required score. Tests that we accept are detailed in the table on the right; we prefer IELTS because it shows us which areas of your English might need to be improved.
