Abstract | Purpose: 'Professionalism' indicates a devotion to, and demonstration of, exceptional performance and achievement in any activity. The built environment comprises the physical items required for economic activity, long-term national development and social well-being. Studies show a need to improve many aspects of the built environment and the sector which creates it. Researchers should contribute to this improvement effort. It is suggested that researchers should demonstrate professionalism but there is no agreement on how professionalism in research is determined. It is necessary to consider what constitutes professionalism in built environment research, and how it can be developed. |
