Arguably a defining element of graduate education lies in the development of original scholarship manifested through dissertations, theses or creative works contributing to a pool of disciplinary knowledge. As such, graduate-level research and creative scholarship represents a vital source of lifeblood across disciplines. Even a cursory review of the following index of dissertations, theses, and creative work reveals a refreshing range of scholarly inquiry. It is heartening to see the collective body of work produced during the past year and, from an editorial perspective, I encourage these authors to share their findings. Authors should also consider publication opportunities in conference papers, posters, articles, and other print and web-based avenues of scholarly dissemination and through practice and industry avenues. I also am confident these emerging researchers, educators, and designers will continue expanding the limits of our existing knowledge pool as they ask hard questions, test theory, push frontiers, and raise challenges. They are poised to shape the future of interior design.
