Programme Overview
The Bachelor of Science in Interior Design programme is an inspiring, rigorous and practical curriculum that offers students the unique opportunity to use creativity and imagination to design and make products that solve real and relevant problems within a variety of contexts. Currently, few tertiary institutions in the country run a comprehensive academic curriculum in Interior Design.The B.Sc. Interior Design students will undertake the same courses in the foundation level with other students in the B.Sc. Landscape Design, Graphic Design and Fashion Design programmes. The foundation of the programme introduces students to the multi-disciplinary fundamentals of design across different facets of design, such as techniques in form-making and conceptual visualisation. The design elements progressively increase in depth and complexity over the next three years with the introduction of the interior specialisation area interwoven with research, skills and visualisation to enhance the academics with profession-specific requirements.
The programme aims to offer an exceptional professional education programme that equips graduates with a repertoire of technical knowledge, creative skills and practical expertise to address interior design, development, construction and preservation of the built and to ground the educational, research and service activities of the school within a global context.
The objectives of the programme are to produce interior design professionals equipped with the necessary technical skills and aesthetic aptitude to:
develop the creative, technical and practical expertise needed to perform interior tasks confidently and to participate successfully in an increasingly technological world;
build and apply a repertoire of knowledge, understanding and skills to design sustainable interior features and products for a wide range of users;
critique, evaluate and test their ideas and products and the works of others; and to develop students to become independent, creative and pragmatic, curious and analytical, imaginative and excellent specialists to (who can) establish their own businesses to cater to the local and international interior market needs.
