Overview
Building on the RCA’s world-leading Intelligent Mobility MA programme (formerly Vehicle Design MA), the Intelligent Mobility MPhil/PhD programme at Royal College of Art promotes critical and thoughtful research and design in the development of future mobility.
Features
- It provides a design-led disruptive research environment focussing on new ways of designing vehicles, experiences, spaces and infrastructure that address societal issues.
Programme Structure
Curriculum:
- The mode of research will be discussed in interview, and should be indicated in the application process.
- A postgraduate research degree challenges you to complete a research project that pushes the boundaries of our understanding.
- Unlike a taught degree, a research degree emphasises independence of learning and increased specialisation. You will manage your own research project in order to investigate your topic in depth and to produce new ideas, arguments and solutions.
- A research degree will give you the subject matter expertise and transferable skills necessary for a wide range of senior roles in research and academia, as well as in business, industry and the cultural and creative sectors.
