Abstract

The vice chancellor of Delft University of Technology, Prof.dr.ir. J. Fokkema, introduced a pilot Evaluating Research in Context (ERiC) at the Faculty of Architecture. The Faculty of Architecture perceives a serious confl ict between the demands and criteria in evaluation procedures and the ambition to be relevant for the practice of architecture, planning and building. The goal of this ERiC pilot is to develop an evaluation method that judges research in the Faculty of Architecture on all its merits and takes into account the specifi c characteristics of architecture research. A second goal is the improvement of the evaluation of research contributions to society. This report presents the full results of this project and gives recommendations how to use these results in an evaluation according to the Standard Evaluation Protocol 2009-2015.
