KNOWLEDGE-IN-ACTION
A graphic design research symposium

Wednesday 17 September 2008
1.30pm–5.00pm

The symposium has two main aims:
(a) to demystify the process of embarking on a research degree;
(b) to encourage PhD level research in graphic design, and its related
subject areas.
The event presents an opportunity to hear from speakers who have
developed a
career in research, education and practice, since completing their PhD.
Reflecting on their experience, they will discuss a range of academic and
non-academic issues, talking informally about topics such as: the impact of
doctoral study on their career; the integration of research, education and
practice; developing research initiatives; and the balance between
deliberate and intuitive practice.

WHO WILL THIS BE OF INTEREST TO?
Those interested in pursuing a career in research; final year and
post-graduate students in graphic design and related fields of interest;
supervisors and potential supervisors; managers in Higher Education;
practising researchers and designers.

ADMISSION IS FREE
But all attendees will need to register their intention to come before
Monday 8 September—numbers will be limited.<
