Doctor of Design (DDes)

Fields of Research

The DDes is a strong and intense advanced research program that is usually developed in a three years period. Students are required to apply to the program with a well-defined interest in a specific field of study, which is the base for the research proposal. It is expected that the Doctoral program will offer each student a rich experience and opportunities to become a specialist within the selected field of research.

To illustrate such variety and the degree of specificity within the program, the list of thesis titles defended by DDes graduates extends to vast areas of the design disciplines.
