Research in Architecture and Design

Design research

The School of Architecture and Design at RMIT is widely recognised for innovative leadership and contribution to excellence in Design Research. At RMIT we contend that research can be, and is, conducted through designing and that the process of designing, as a means of increasing knowledge, parallels research in other areas in interesting ways. There exists a way of thinking and communicating that is both different from scientific and scholarly ways of thinking and communicating, and as powerful as scientific and scholarly methods of enquiry when applied to its own kinds of problems.
