Hello, Research into design process and design management has progressed at different speeds in design subfields. This offers the opportunity to arbitrage between them (i.e. borrow bits to bring other areas of design to the same point). I’ve found it very useful. The field of concurrent engineering design seems to be some years ahead in this kind of thinking compared of design subfields in Art and Design and business/organisational design. Below is the current table of contents of the Concurrent Engineering journal. Some of the issues being addressed in CE are 1 to 2 generations ahead timewise which offers opportunities to bring areas of theory forward and points to opportunities for new Design PhDs.
