The doctorate programme in Design Sciences, active since 2005 via the doctorate in Product Design and Communication, promotes the acquisition and learning of questions and issues concerning the theory and method of industrial design and communication. It aims at developing doctorate students’ abilities in coordinating and managing cooperative planning and research groups. Specific attention is placed on frontier fields where the competence of visual communication and product design intertwine.
The doctorate programme is also concerned with research methods and tools relative to the field, void of methodological formalism, but instead through the elaboration of relevant issues and problems. It supports the convergence of contributions from various disciplines: industrial design, visual and multimodal communications, cognitive sciences, history and criticism, semiotics, social sciences, economics, computer science, and the study of advanced digital technologies.
The first PhD dissertation was presented and discussed in November of 2007.
