INTERIOR DESIGN

Studies description

The aim of interior design is to plan and develop spaces for people to use for all kinds of activities: residential, commercial, leisure, exhibitions, educational etc.

The Planning and Interior Design Management course offers students a general overview of Interior Design studies, as well as the professional areas directly related to it. The course provides them with specific and focused training in the techniques and skills that are required to deal with the creation, planning and managing of an interior design project.

The Interior Design department is made up of professional designers and architects. The fact that these teachers are also professionals in their field guarantees a strong connection between the course and the real world of interior design.

  • Vocational practice in both private and public companies.
  • Fulfilment of academically addressed work which can be integrated in the curriculum of the cycle. This may be carried out at the school.

The tutoring of training students in companies will be supervised by the tutor of the Technical Degree through direct contact with company managers and the students themselves. Training in companies enables the student to become familiar with the labour sphere (insertion objective) at the same time that it helps them to complete their learning of their favourite vocational field (qualification objective).
