Architecture, Planning and Landscape 680       Design Practice Research Project Definition
Introduction to practice-based research in the design fields. Explores the differences between first professional degree training, traditional PhD research and design-based creative practice research by learning to contextualize existing professional expertise and experience. Students will progress toward defining their doctoral research question through self-reflexive study, the application of design thinking strategies; attendance at and reflection upon practice research symposium events and peer presentations; and the development of their research statement.
Course Hours:
3 units; (3-0)

Architecture, Planning and Landscape 682       Contexts of Design Practice Research
Exploration of diverse contexts crucial to crafting a research question and the development of skills associated with the evaluation and use of extant research. The effects on design research of social, political, economic, and cultural contexts, as well as of academic and professional practices, are considered through the assessment of academic and professional literature, precedents and case studies, and symposia presentations. Develops an understanding of how contexts impact the researcher, the research question, the choice of research methods, dissemination of research, and other aspects of practice research.
Course Hours:
3 units; (3-0)

Architecture, Planning and Landscape 684       Strategies for Design Practice Research
Compares alternative strategies for conducting practice research in the design disciplines. Emphasizes discussions regarding the appropriateness and limitations of different approaches and methodologies through examination of academic literature, practice research case studies, and the research of peers in the symposium. The research process, drawing conclusions, and reporting findings also are examined with a view toward developing the student's research proposal and work plan in advance of preparation for candidacy field of study examination.
