Creativity and innovation are at the core of design, and collaboration across disciplines is central for design concepts to become reality, whether working in the engineering, built environment or design professions. The emerging field of multidisciplinary design provides a challenge to the concept of “discipline”, and it offers opportunities for new models of design education. ConnectED 2007 is a platform for the discussion of research and strategies that address the promise and possibilities of design education that crosses disciplinary boundaries.
The conference venue is the University of New South Wales in Sydney, one of the world’s great cities, and the main international gateway to Australia. Sydney, renowned for its harbour and Opera House, is a vibrant multicultural city at the forefront of design in Australia.
