  1. Art & Design Research – its capability & potential • History, Experience and Context • Art and Design Research – why bother? • The Professional/The Academic • Exploiting Potential – mechanisms and approaches • Interdisciplinarity and Collaboration • Using Capability Funding

  2. Art & Design Research – its capability & potential History, Experience & Context • Lecturer in Fine Art, Ulster Polytechnic, 1973 • University of Ulster 1984 - “Research” • Research Selectivity Exercises 1986 and 1989 (3) 67.5 staff • Research Assessment Exercise 1992 (3) 57.5 staff • RAE 1996 (4) 47.5 staff • (RAE 2001 (5))

  3. Art & Design Research – its capability & potential History, Experience & Context • 1996 moved to Sheffield Hallam • RAE 1992 (3), RAE 1996 (4) • RAE 2001 (5) • 2000 moved to The Surrey Institute of Art & Design, University College • RAE 1996 (1), RAE 2001 (3A)

  4. Art & Design Research – its capability & potential History, Experience & Context • Early realisation and commitment • Context of expectation, assumptions, support • Performance Indicators – Battle won • Parallel developments – 1992 – creation of “new universities”. Uncertainties and anxieties clear. Ethos of Polytechnics • Initial dominance of pre-92 HEIs • Continued debate within Arts & Design Community

  5. Art & Design Research – its capability & potential History, Experience & Context • Creation of Arts & Humanities Research Board 1998 • Dual support system available to our subjects • Funding for Research Degrees • Funding for staff

  6. Art & Design Research – its capability & potential Art & Design Research – why bother? • The status of the subjects • academic high ground/academic low ground • Motivation of staff • Influencing the language • Personal conviction • Political positioning • national and international • a seat at the table • Resources

  7. Art & Design Research – its capability & potential The Professional/The Academic • Practice-led research • The blurring of boundaries • Staff attitudes and perceptions

  8. Art & Design Research – its capability & potential Exploiting Potential – mechanisms & approaches • Hearts and minds • Resources – a symbol of commitment • Role models – grow your own as well as import • Structures, management, committees • Monitoring, evaluation, gradual selectivity • Dissemination, exchange, learning • A research culture, a research community • External funding

  9. Art & Design Research – its capability & potential Interdisciplinarity & Collaboration • Interdisciplinarity within Institution • Mutual learning and common ground • Subject clusters and boundaries • Approaches for external funding – gains from joint bids e.g. European money • AHRB, EPSRC, ESRC • Industrial collaboration/Knowledge Transfer • Research Consortia • Research Students

  10. Art & Design Research – its capability & potential Using Capability Funding • Institutional commitment – supporting aspiration • Build on existing strengths and potential • Dissemination/Research Community • Value for money • Learning to bid, gaining expertise, yielding more funds
