Course summary

The programme addresses the critical role of the discipline in its different aspects, from theory, practice, representation, participation, technology, ecological, art to politics. It pursues advanced research in different forms: academic writings, creative practices, laboratory experiments, field works, live projects, design processes and participatory feedbacks.The programme benefits from the cross-disciplinary research expertise and environment of both the School of Arts and the School of Built Environment, Engineering and Computing. PhD candidates develop their individual research under the guidance of two supervisors and an external advisor where appropriate. The progress of doctoral studies and the development towards an academic career are supported by regular research seminars, presentations and discussions of their work both within and outside the schools, research clusters activities ranging from specialised seminars, symposia and collaborative publications, opportunities and financial support to produce research output for publications and exhibitions internal and external to the school, teaching activities ranging from offering lectures, workshops and critical reviews to student projects, as well as research training programme workshops organised centrally by the university research office.
