Pilot study University TU Delft - Architecture

13 August 2008

Delft University of Technology (TU Delft) needs methods to more accurately assess research from design-oriented disciplines. A pilot study was therefore started at the Faculty of Architecture. Research at this faculty is not only published in scientific journals. Architects make designs, set up exhibitions and compile catalogues. Urban planners publish in the national magazines about Vinex locations and advise regional and national governments. All too often these activities are scarcely appreciated by assessors despite being common practice within the discipline.

As design-oriented research scarcely has specific indicators and criteria for assessing quality, ERiC will propose criteria and indicators for assessing the research, which it will then use to assess the research at the Faculty of Architecture.
