Overview

Honours Bachelor of Interior Design

The Honours Bachelor of Interior Design degree program at Fanshawe College prepares students to encompass analysis, space planning, design, documentation, and management of interior construction and alteration projects in compliance with regional and national building codes, life-safety standards, and regulations

With an emphasis on creativity and design thinking, students prepare for a distinct profession with specialized knowledge related to human behavior theories, research, and technical and project-specific design solutions.

If you are passionate about designing spaces that nurture the physical, social and psychological needs of a changing society, this four-year, CIDA-accredited program prepares students for an in-demand career.

You’ll learn how to utilize innovative digital fabrication equipment to conceptualize (their) design parti, such as 3D printing, CNC fabrication, laser cutting, and more. 

You’ll also experience your designs using virtual reality technologies, and learn to communicate and share your ideas with future clients by practicing verbal and visual presentation methods.

The courses develop students' skills as creative designers who can formulate, propose and execute creative design solutions for the physical, social, and psychological needs of a changing society. 

Principles of environmental sustainability and socially responsible design are embedded throughout the courses.

Apply your learning and make industry connections during two co-op work semesters in entry-level interior design.

*The co-op term takes place after the third year and is 425 hours of paid work experience before the fourth year

The Honours Bachelor of Interior Design program at Fanshawe College is recognized by the Association of Registered Interior Designers of Ontario (ARIDO).
