Course Description
This course presents an introduction and overview of interdisciplinary research theories, strategies, and methods as applied to issues in professional practice of design. Special emphasis is placed on the roles, values, and specific methods related to design practice, including (not limited to) case study analysis and evaluation; design typology; engaged research; research and development (e.g. prototyping); and design process. Course content is adaptable to student needs and interests. Restricted to Doctor of Design (D.Des) students; other advanced post-professional design students may enroll with permission of instructor. Although course content and instruction is predominantly online, the course requires one week of face-to-face intensive on-campus instruction and other activities before Fall term begins (TBA).
