Research in the creative fields of architecture, design, music and
the arts has experienced dynamic development for over two decades.
The research in these practice- and arts-based fields has become
increasingly mature but has also led to various discussions on what
constitutes doctoral proficiency in these fields. The term
'doctorateness' is often used when referring to the assessment of
the production of doctoral research and the research competence of
research students, but in architecture and the arts, the concept of
doctorateness has not yet attained a clearly articulated
definition. The assessment of quality has been practiced by way of
supervising, mentoring and the evaluation of dissertations but much
less discussed. This book offers perspectives on how to qualify and
assess research in architecture, music and the arts. It creates a
broader arena for discussion on doctorateness by establishing a
framework for its application to creative fields. The book is
grouped into three sections and includes contributions from
international experts in the various fields working in Australia,
Belgium, Brazil, Canada, Norway, Sweden, Switzerland, Spain, the
Netherlands and the UK. The first section offers general frameworks
for further conceptualising doctorateness in the fields in
question. It is followed by a section that describes and discusses
various experiences, concerns and visions on the production and
assessment of doctoral research reporting from doctoral programmes
in different stages of development. The third section includes
future-oriented perspectives on knowledge-building processes, and
asks how the ongoing, profound changes in academia could influence
the concept of quality in both doctoral process and product. The
book presents different perspectives on research assessment
practices and developments of relevant criteria in the
practice-based and creative fields of architecture and the arts.
The contributions propose ways of framing this issue conceptually,
show the need for awareness of the specific context and tradition
programmes develop and give proposals for various potential
trajectories for the future.
