Syllabus |
The contents, although centered on Fashion Design, are comprehensive and transversal to different areas of knowledge, due to their necessary adaptability to the object of study of each doctoral student. The contents point to and imply a set of common procedures, capable of guiding research and framing the writing of the thesis in a conceptual and formal requirement appropriate to the study cycle, including in particular: 1-Collaborative research: borders between fashion design, science and technology, humanities, art, culture and economics. 2-Exploring the holistic dimension of design and Fashion 3-Conception of the Thesis Project: problem identification/research questions, hypotheses to test and relevance of the study; 4-Literature review that supports and theoretically frames the investigation; 5-Selection of methods and tools; 6-Elaboration of the work plan 7-Presentation of the Thesis Project.

Teaching Methodologies and Assessment Criteria |
Considering that the PhD students are distributed by supervisors from the 1st year, the methodologies are articulated in two axes: tutorial guidance, with the direct support of a researcher/teacher; and frequency of seminars from the associated R&D units, which host the status of the various projects, organized in a panel, designating among the students responsible for the argumentation.
