Design Studio challenges students to analyze, speculate, and predict new design paradigms by producing design works related to the emerging collaborative consumption movement. This course is designed to help students develop their individual skills, knowledge, and sensibilities in design, and to support students in determining the direction of their own education based on their own personal preferences. Long-term and short-term projects addressing real-life design situations and requiring competence in solving design problems. Project work will be undertaken both individually and in teams. The design studio will encourage students to develop a framework for understanding the role of design systems, tools, and objects as cultural artifacts and their reflection on social diversity. In particular, students will focus on the cultural experiences of collaborative consumption as they are stimulated through design.

This course provides a theoretical and practical foundation in research design, data collection, analysis, and ethical principles, covering quantitative, qualitative, and mixed methods essential for advanced research in the field of design.

The course involves independent study under the guidance of a faculty advisor, focusing on: • Identifying a research topic • Conducting a comprehensive literature review • Preparing a seminar report • Delivering a seminar presentation • Evaluating feedback and finalizing the report

This course involves independent study under the guidance of a faculty Supervisor, focusing on preparing for the doctoral proficiency examination. The content includes: • Comprehensive review of core and specialized subjects within the discipline • Critical analysis of current literature and research methodologies • Development of research questions and hypotheses • Preparation for written and oral examination components • Evaluation of ethical considerations in research

The aim of this course is to enable students to conduct an original and independent scientific research project under the supervision of an academic Supervisor. The course guides students through identifying a research problem, designing a methodological framework, collecting and analyzing data, interpreting findings, and reporting results in the form of a doctoral dissertation.
