DSS2025 PROGRAM

Izmir University of Economics’ Design Studies Graduate Program is organizing the Design Studies Symposium for the fourth time with DSS2025. The DSS2025 Theme focuses on alleged “failures” in design research, design writing and publishing, and seeing mishaps as opportunities for growth and learning. The symposium will be held on Friday, May 23, 2025 at the Izmir University of Economics Campus, Faculty of Fine Arts and Design, Multi-Purpose Hall. The event is open to all participants and certificates will be given during the exhibition opening and cocktail. We hope to see you among us at DSS2025!
