About the chance
The Sydney School of Architecture, Design and Planning (ADP) is an internationally acknowledged centre for intellectual and creative research, attracting the highest quality scholars in Australia and is committed to a sustainable future for Sydney and the world.
Creatively combining the disciplines of Architecture, Urbanism and Design, we explore how cities, spaces, buildings, technologies, and services can better meet the needs of people and society.
Our educators and researchers are experimental, imaginative, and critical, innovating at the boundaries of their disciplines and creating exciting and engaging learning experiences for our students – the global citizens of tomorrow.
Design is a rapidly growing and highly successful discipline within the school.
Our design research explores the role of design in speculating on the future, and to envision, define and inform the interactions and experiences between people and digital and emerging technologies.
Pushing the boundaries of pedagogical practice in interaction and innovation, we encourage our students to critically rethink and prototype new objects, systems, experiences, and materials that shape human experience and life on the planet through the lens of design.
Recognising that design cannot happen in isolation, we actively collaborate across disciplines and with external partners, including industry, not-for-profit, government and community groups and organisations.
In particular, we value the importance of retaining strong ties to professional practice to make sure that the educational offering is up-to-date in a field that is rapidly changing.
