What You'll Learn and Do

Gain practical interior design training as a student.

Further your understanding of design fundamentals and develop technical abilities, such as drafting architectural drawings and delivering persuasive presentations, while completing an interior design certificate program online.

Clear-cut route to a master’s degree.
