Design research

Design Research at UTS responds to the challenges posed by new technologies and changing social priorities.

It is focused on leading the design profession and engaging with industry, government and the community through:

  • emerging critical fields such as interactivity with all things designed and made
  • practice-based and practice-led research methodologies for designers
  • creative use of digital technologies in the design and production of products and spaces
  • the historical, cultural and philosophical impact of design on society and culture.
