It is geared toward students with an undergraduate degree in a field other than interior design or architecture. A holistic design approach is stressed throughout the two-year program. Students are encouraged to consider all factors that influence the design of interior spaces from human behavior, aesthetics, and building technology to the views from windows and doors that penetrate the surrounding architecture. Specifically, the curriculum focuses on the design of residential and commercial spaces – how space is organized, developed three-dimensionally, finished with materials and color, lit, furnished, and designed to incorporate user needs and building codes.     Accreditation Information:   # Of Credits Required:   Time To Degree:     Previous Degrees Bachelor's Degree  Pre-Requisite Courses International Student Requirements Please visit our website for International Graduate Student Admissions Requirements.  Requirements Qualifying Exam: None Required Minimum Exam Score: GPA or Equivalent: 3.0 English Proficiency: Yes Research Competency: Clinical Internship:   Work Experience Volunteer Experience Publications Experience Foreign Language Requirement Other Requirements   Cost Per Credit Hour: $   Tuition: 20580  Financial Aid Offered:       # of Students Enrolled Full Time: 513  # of Students Enrolled Part Time: 272  Average GPA: 3.000  Average Test Scores:   Charge Per Credit: $686  Annual Full Time Avg Institution Tuition: $20580  Financial Aid Offered: Yes  Average Work Experience: 3  Specializations: Sustainability  # of Terms Per Year: Semester  Placement Percentage: 90.00%  Historically Black: No   Religious Affiliation: Not applicable       12/1/2009 Spring Term Application Deadline Applications reviewed on a space-available basis after deadline.
