Doctorate by Design PhD

University of Sheffield

The Doctorate by Design programme creates the space for innovative, inter-disciplinary landscape architecture research, which combines creative practice with analytical written research. Candidates complete both a 60,000-word thesis as well as design research, using two or three-dimensional mixed media. The design methods include, but are not limited to, the production of landscape representations through: drawing, film, modelling, programming. This programme builds upon our existing PhD programme and creates new opportunities for creative research methods. We welcome applications from landscape architecture and a range of landscape related fields including architecture, urbanism, and fine art.
