From 2015–2018 I conducted my doctoral research at the headquarter of the world’s biggest automotive manufacturer in Germany, in order to inquire how design practices and the role of designers are challenged or reframed inside one large organization. 
Being employed as a Ph.D. Candidate in industry in general, and within the investigated organization in particular, creates a special situation of sitting at the fence between academia and industry. Concerning both, the different interests and involvements of many stakeholders, the challenge of taking a double role as a researcher and colleague at the same time, keeping a scientific distance as well as dealing with ethical and organizational constraints need to be acknowledged while conducting research in this setup. Within my talk, I will discuss potential avenues, tendencies, and challenges of an industry-based Ph.D. 

Originally trained as a graphic & process designer, Andrea has been active in the development of human-centered future visions for business, social design and design education for more than ten years. In 2015, she was appointed to the Think Tank 30 of the Club of Rome. Alongside her position as a Ph.D. Candidate within the Digitalization Team at Volkswagen Group (2015-2018), she enjoys sharing her professional work experience through lecturing at various universities, in 2018 she holds an international teaching position at the Beijing Normal University Zhuhai, China on a part time basis.

As an Institute of National Importance (2014), NID’s vision is tethered to the fact that higher education in design will have greater responsibilities to meet the needs of society both in India and abroad. It must be prepared to accept this challenge so that it can continue to lead advances in educational and technological innovation, creative expression and design led problem solving. At the same time NID anchors itself to cultural strengths of India and fosters strategic design linkages of innovation and entrepreneurship with the various sectors of industry. NID has to identify opportunities for newer linkages across institutional, national and cultural boundaries in order to create newer opportunities for the development of people and industry.

NID seeks to become an institute that will play a critical role in improving the design scenario or design education in India. Considering the Institute’s past contributions at a national level, and the work it is engaged in at present across different sectors, NID’s doctoral level programme is a logical next and higher step to meet those objectives. The PhD programme is open to educators and professionals in design who wish to reinvent their own practice or knowledge base while pushing the boundaries of the discipline through innovation in practice and create new design theories. The paper will create a case for practice-based PhD.

Dr. Shilpa Das heads the three departments of PhD programme, Inter-Disciplinary Design Studies and Science and Liberal Arts Studies at the National Institute of Design, India. She has cumulative work experience of 25 years in the education, publishing, and voluntary sectors. Shilpa has been the Founding Editor of The Trellis, a research-based publication and a magazine called D/signed. She is also the editor, author and creative visualizer of the book 50 Years of the National Institute of Design: 1961-2011 (2013) and co-editor of the book, Indian Crafts in a Globalising World (2017).  She is on the Board of Advisors to the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, Seattle, USA and a Governing Council member on the Mo School Project, Government of Odisha, India.

This keynote will take a comparative look at how doing one's doctorate in design is taking place all over Germany—based on my expertise as a participant of Design Promoviert since 2009, having assumed the role of its co-organiser in 2014 and being a doctoral candidate myself since 2012. If we take Frayling as the applicable basis with his differentiation from 1993 concerning research into, about and for design, we can state that the SwissGradNetwork, when intending to base its PhD model on the concept of “use-inspired basic research”, does apply to Frayling's idea of research for design. But far be it from me to stimulate a discussion on that. My presentation aims at giving the audience an overview of the plethora of research approaches that have been presented in the course of our colloquia and the research models they encompass. It will also try to point out the main differences between different models of doing one's doctorate based on individual promotion regulations resulting from the sovereignty of the German states.

PhD in 1991, habilitation in 2007; research and teaching at universities and art schools in Basel, Braunschweig, Berlin, Düsseldorf, Helsinki and Perugia; numerous publications on all epochs in the history of knowledge and on present-day questions across the disciplines.

“The red thread running through my spheres of work is my understanding of philosophy as a bridge connecting arts, sciences, humanities and technology development. While the self-conception of sciences and humanities is about to change significantly, the knowledge of the arts is appreciated in a new way. This shift implies the chance of a dialogue on eye level and fosters a stronger role of the arts within society.”
