The Faculty of Architecture, Design and Planning at the University is focused on the built environment and uses methods of architecture, design, planning, science, art, engineering, IT, and social sciences to analyse, understand and design innovative environments.
This fellowship has been established through the generosity of the estate of the late Ian Buchan Fell, and the Faculty of Architecture, Design and Planning.

In this role you will pursue an agenda focused on housing, and the needs of people relative to their housing. These needs are related to the complex interactions between people, their housing and other aspects of the built environment, including but not limited to related issues such as economic and community development. The Ian Fell Housing Research Fellowship has been established to further research in this important area.
You will also have the opportunity to work with a dynamic group of established and early career researchers in our research groups and labs including the Urban Housing Lab, the Innovation in Applied Design Lab, Indoor Environmental Quality Lab, Design Lab.
