About the Course
The course introduces a variety of approaches, methodologies, issues and concerns in ‘research through practice’. Here, ‘research through practice’ refers to a broad continuum of constructive artistic and design research approaches, as well as practice-led and -based research approaches. In the course we share and discuss with doctoral students the discourse that have evolved around the research approaches, especially in Aalto ARTS, and make visible the community that is working around the field. Therefore, we invite professors to contribute to the content of the course, who are currently working in the field in Aalto ARTS, or who have completed their doctoral studies in ARTS and currently work elsewhere within the research approach.
