Bachelor of Fine Arts, concentration in Interior Design
Interior design is a profession that combines creativity, technical knowledge, and business skills. Interior designers work with clients and other design professionals to develop design solutions that are safe, functional, attractive, and meet the needs of the people using the space.
Interior designers must know how to plan a space and how to present that plan visually so that it can be communicated to the client. They must also know about the materials and products that will be used to create and furnish the space, and how texture, color, lighting and other factors combine and interact to make the space come together. In addition, interior designers must understand the structural requirements of their plans, the health and safety issues, building codes, and many other technical aspects.
In the Interior Design program here at FHSU, you will study the design, safety, and usability issues of creating spaces where we live, work, and play.

Graduates are prepared to seek entry-level employment such as draftperson, facilities planner, interior designer, or space planner.
