Program description
Bachelor of Fine Arts Offered at the Miami and Tampa Campus
The professional interior designer is qualified by education, experience, and examination to enhance the function and quality of interior spaces for the purpose of improving quality of life, increasing productivity, and protecting the health, safety, and welfare of the public.
The Interior Design program is carefully structured to teach students to merge form and function into their work, thereby creating surroundings that enhance the well-being and productivity of the people who live, work, or play there.
In addition to planning interior spaces that are aesthetically pleasing and functional, our students will also have the opportunity to learn about federal, state, and local building codes regarding life safety issues, which are necessary for professional practice.
The program begins with a solid foundation in basic drafting, drawing, rendering, and perspective and then builds upon aesthetics, design theory, and technical problem-solving skills.
Students will have the opportunity to learn the different challenges associated with both residential and commercial interior design projects. In addition, they can learn how to maintain accurate records, write contracts, and work successfully with wholesalers in the industry to help manage costs. Upon graduation, each student will have received hands-on training and instruction from our award-winning faculty and organized a portfolio to display his or her accomplishments to prospective employers.
Interior Designers can become licensed by the Florida Department of Business and Professional Regulation, Board of Architecture and Interior Design. The requirements for licensure include a combination of education, professional experience, and passage of an examination administered by the National Council for Interior Design Qualification (NCIDQ).
The University does not guarantee third-party certification/licensure. Outside agencies control the requirements for certifications and licensure and are subject to change without notice to the University.
