Students will benefit from a comprehensive training program that includes interdisciplinary, methodological, and creative development through three main spokes: Concepts and Critiques, Empirical Enquiry, and Creative Practice. The program also emphasizes knowledge exchange, offering opportunities for internships, collaborative partnerships, and engagement with creative industries and public sectors. The DLA Hub is committed to equality, diversity, and inclusion, ensuring accessibility and equity of opportunity for all students. Funding covers tuition fees, a stipend for living expenses, and additional support for training and travel related to Hub activities. Applicants must apply directly to their chosen university, each of which has its own application process and deadlines, generally falling between November 2025 and January 2026. The earliest deadline is November 21, 2025. Prospective students should consult the SGSAH DLA Hub website and the relevant university's application guidance for detailed information.
