University Partnerships

Since 2011 the ICA has formed Associate and Affiliate partnerships with key universities in the UK. Each institution has been selected for its academic profile and breadth of teaching practice across a range of artistic disciplines that complement ICA’s interdisciplinary programme. 

Building on the success of our University Partnerships, we are proud to collaborate on a joint MA in the Contemporary with the University of Kent, with courses both in London and in Paris.

We continue to develop our programme of  ICA Symposia, exhibitions and other academic events, along with collaborative doctoral awards and numerous other research collaborations.
