Interior Design
Associate Professor Dana Moody, Head
Interior Design is a multi-faceted profession in which creative and technical solutions are applied within a structure to achieve a built interior environment. Design solutions are functional, aesthetically pleasing and protect the health, safety and welfare of the public.
The Interior Design program reserves the right to retain student work for upcoming accreditation site visits.
Continuation Standards
- A grade of C (70%) or better in an interior design course is required for that course to be considered as successfully completed, and for that course to count as a prerequisite for subsequent courses in the interior design course sequence. A grade of D or F in an interior design course must be repeated in order to continue, prolonging the time it takes to complete the Interior Design program.
- Interior Design 290 (Sophomore Portfolio Review) - In order for a student to continue progression within interior design, the student must make one of the top 15 averaged scores on the Sophomore Portfolio Review. The review consists of a comprehensive exam, a juried project, and a project presentation. Students are not allowed to fail any section of the review and must have an averaged score of 75% or better.
- Interior Design students who successfully pass Interior Design 290 - Sophomore Portfolio Review - are required to obtain a laptop computer with required program software to be used in the 3rd and 4th year classroom setting.
