ICoRD'11 - 3rd International Conference on Research into Design

Friday 26th of March 2010

Design is ubiquitous; it pervades almost all spheres of life, and has been around as long as life has taken up the task of purposefully changing the world around it. Research in design and the emergence of a research community in this area has been relatively new, its development influenced by the multiple facets of design (human, artefact, process, organisation, and the micro- and macro economy by which design is shaped) and the associated diversification of the community into those focusing on various aspects of these individual facets, or various applications.

ICoRD'11 is the third in a series of conferences intended to be held every two years in India to bring together the international community from diverse areas of design practice, teaching and research. It also coincides with the Centennial year of Indian Institute of Science, and is part of the Centennial Celebrations of the Institute.

The conference is endorsed by the Design Society.

ICoRD'11 will be held 10-12.01.2011 at the Indian Institute of Science in Bangalore.

The conference will have:

- Invited presentations from eminent international experts and practitioners;
- Presentations of refereed papers as podium, poster,panel or theme presentations;
- Industrial sessions to present perspectives from industry and studies in practice.
