Design is about the creation of meaningful connections to solve
problems and advance human wellbeing; the discipline has always
explored the beneficial links between form and function, technology
and meaning, beauty and utility, people and artefacts and problems
and solutions, among others. This book focuses on the crucial
connection between design research and design education.
Contemporary society grows increasingly hyper-complex and globally
competitive. This state of affairs raises fundamental questions for
both Design Education and Design Research: Should research skills
be integrated into undergraduate courses? How can we modify design
courses without compromising the positive aspects of the
educational studio experience? Can the three cycles of higher
education in design be combined into a creative and inquisitive
educational continuum? To examine the relationship between research
and education in Design we must address the topic of knowledge,
keeping in mind that the development and dissemination of new and
useful knowledge is the core purpose of a University. If we agree
that design has its own things to know and ways to find out about
them, then design knowledge resides in people, processes, products,
and philosophy. This book explores the intersection of these four
areas with the aim of uncovering insights to advance the current
state of the design discipline.
