The MPhil/PhD Architectural Design allows exceptional and reflective designers to undertake research within The Bartlett School of Architecture’s speculative and experimental ethos. The first to be established in the UK, our MPhil/PhD Architectural Design is internationally recognised as one of the most influential doctoral programmes dedicated to architectural design. The programme draws on the strengths of design teaching and doctoral research at The Bartlett, encouraging the development of architectural research through the interaction of drawing and writing. An architectural design doctoral thesis has two interrelated elements of equal importance – a project and a text – that share a research theme and a productive relationship. The project may be drawn, filmed, built, or use whatever medium is appropriate. UCL’s multidisciplinary environment offers a stimulating and varied research culture that connects research by architectural design to developments in other disciplines such as anthropology, art, digital media, engineering, geography and medicine. The PhD Architectural Design programme is intended for graduates of architecture and other disciplines who wish to pursue research by architectural design, with over 60 students currently enrolled from around the world. The MPhil/PhD Architectural Design and MPhil/PhD Architectural History & Theory programmes organise a number of annual events. PhD Research Projects, an exhibition and conference with presentations and work by current PhD students, is held in Term 2. Invited critics in 2017 were Professor Marcos Cruz, The Bartlett School of Architecture; Professor Sylvia Lavin, University of California, Los Angeles; Dr Tarsha Finney, University of Technology Sydney; Professor Frédéric Migayrou, The Bartlett School of Architecture; Professor François Penz, University of Cambridge; and Dr Neil Wenman, Hauser & Wirth London. Throughout the year, PhD Research Conversations seminars provide the opportunity for doctoral candidates to present work in progress.
