Practice Based Design Research Education
The Design Research Unit has been actively developing collaborations with postgraduate educational programs in design and the applied arts.
Our current collaborations in this area are with the Interdisciplinary Studies department at Konstfack University College of Arts, Crafts and Design, the Interaction Design course at Umeå Institute of Design, and the Smart Textiles initiative at the Swedish School of Textiles at the University College of Borås. These collaborations currently take the form of: curriculum and course development, lecturing and advising students, and funded research projects with industrial partners.
