A design research degree offers you the opportunity and time to explore innovative research practice through original, critical works. You鈥檒l have the choice to work on your own design, or with staff on international and external projects in collaborative research in our ongoing practice-based projects.

You鈥檒l make research connections that allow you to explore new concepts and meanings in design. For doctoral study, there鈥檚 a key need for design to offer experimentation within environmental, social and sustainable futures in the subject and your discipline.

We understand your research may change as you make new connections and as relevant modes of thought and action become important to you through the course of your research. We鈥檒l work with you as you find the appropriate practice for pursuing your research and related form for consolidating and disseminating your findings.
