FCSIDBA - Interior Design - Bachelor of Arts

The Interior Design major prepares students to design innovative, functional, supportive and responsible interior environments that positively impact the quality of life. The curriculum develops students' skills and knowledge in color and design, drafting, space planning, building and interior systems, materials and finishes, historical interiors, building and barrier-free codes, and Auto-CAD. The needs of special populations and the mandates that regulate the field of interior design are emphasized.

This sequence allows students to take up to 12 hours of approved graduate courses that will count for both the undergraduate and graduate program in Fashion Design and Merchandising/Family and Consumer Sciences during their last 2 semesters. Students can apply to the Family and Consumer Sciences Accelerated sequence in the spring of their junior year or 3 semesters before graduation. Students can then apply to the Family and Consumer Sciences graduate program in the spring of their senior year.
