Design is naturally cross-cutting in terms of its intersections with other disciplines and in its use of wide ranging research methods. We welcome applications focusing on areas of design process, design thinking, design computation, sustainability, codesign, complexity and education. We work in a wide range of contexts including organisations, urban, manufacturing, transitions, communities, digital and governance.
We’re always keen to hear from potential PhD candidates who have the requisite qualifications including a Masters in a relevant subject or equivalent research experience. For further information contact either a relevant member of design staff or our postgraduate lead, Dr Emma Dewberry (emma.dewberry@open.ac.uk).
