The Design and Innovation Group at the Open University is a leading international centre for Design research which reaches across disciplines and domains. The group is seeking well qualified PhD candidates with interests in the areas of (a) Design Processes or (b) Computational Design, to develop models and tools which can be applied across design domains. A good first degree in Design, Engineering, Mathematics or Computing, would be particularly relevant for this studentship. The candidate needs to have a keen interest in reflecting on design practice and engaging with real design processes at the same time as engaging with theoretical discussions.
Applying
Applications should be made by the 1st July. The PhD will start on 1 October 2010 or as soon as possible afterwards. Potential applicants should contact Claudia Eckert (c.m.eckert@open.ac.uk) for informal discussions or enquiries. The studentship will provide a living stipend and will cover University fees. Non-EU candidates are eligible but may need to fund the difference between Home and Overseas fees. General information about studying for a PhD at The Open University, including an application form and details of fees, is available at http://www3.open.ac.uk/study/research-degrees/index.htm.
