EDAR Affiliated Labs & Research Expertise

Doctoral research developed at EDAR aligns with three research areas:

Sciences of the City is aimed at students trained in social sciences (Sociology, Geography, Economics, Political science, Anthropology, History), but also at architects and engineers wishing to pursue research on urbanization, urbanity, mobility, and habitat.

History, Theory, and Heritage is open to any proposed research topic likely to provide a deeper understanding of the questions inherent to these fields of studies from the vantage point of process of architectural project, namely from the point of view of construction and composition.

The Research in/by Design axis addresses the project both as a research topic – in its conceptual, cultural and technical foundations – and as a form of research in its whole.
