The School of Visual & Performing Arts is able to provide supervision for PhD candidates. Supervision depends on the research project and can be accommodated either solely through the School of Visual and Performing Arts or as a joint arrangement with another School.

The thesis for a PhD in visual arts may be presented in one of two forms: (i) exhibition and exegesis, or (ii) theoretical thesis. Option (i) results from a studio-based enquiry project, and incorporates an exhibition of the studio work produced during the program and a supporting written exegesis. Option (ii) is a written document which conforms to norms for PhD theses in the humanities and social sciences.
