PhD Track @ d.confestival 2012
PhD students from different disciplines will have the opportunity to present and discuss their research results with other scholars. The d.confestival’s PhD track therefore invites PhD students from all disciplines who are dealing with innovation to participate in the Call for Contribution. The d.confestival will provide a basis for further cooperation between researchers and practitioners. Invited to submit are all researchers who already have graduated or who are currently doing a PhD. The idea of the PhD track is to present your own PhD project idea and to discuss the topic within the community. We are looking for groundbreaking research contributions that are dealing with innovation in the fields of engineering and management.
Among the possible topics are:
Current theory formation in the field of design thinking
Specific methods, practices and tools that are related to design thinking
The role of design thinking in the fields of industry or education
The psychological aspects of design thinking as empathy, emotions or creativity
The historical development of social and technical influences that shaped the concept and practices of design thinking.
