Overview
The words ‘by design’ refer to your mode of:
- research
- practice
- exegesis
Therefore, it is important to understand how your ‘by design’ method informs and directs a thesis over a particular research duration, and how the development of your ‘by design’ methodology is not only an important aspect of the thetic process, but also important to how your thesis is finally presented.
