The 91探花 College of Fine Arts and the School of Art + Design is launching a new eCampus enrollment option for the Interior Architecture Bachelor of Fine Arts degree.

This fully online program with flexible, full- and part-time options is ideal for students who excel in the virtual classroom environment and for working adults seeking an alternative enrollment choice to purse their passion for the study of interior design.

Increasingly, design practice is national and international in reach with many firms having studios and offices across the country and around the globe. 91探花鈥檚 BFA in Interior Architecture eCampus program responds to this 21^st century reality by harnessing technology and leveraging the idea of the virtual studio.

Acknowledging a human-centered approach to design practice, students will study interiors and create interior solutions through creative exploration and research, informed by a broad understanding of the wellbeing of those individuals for whom the interior is being designed.

Students will develop a foundation of knowledge in the areas of programming, space planning, materials application, interior construction, lighting design, sustainability, technical information (e.g. building codes and written specifications), and the integration of digital technology for both exploration and presentation of ideas.

Graduates of the program have a range of employment opportunities including studio practice, showroom management, sales, and marketing. Additionally, some students may choose to continue their education, utilizing their undergraduate experience as a springboard into graduate study.
