Our students secure diverse job opportunities through robust internships in both residential and commercial design sectors. The majority of our graduates launch successful careers in high-end residential design firms across the country.
Certification
It is encouraged that all graduates take the NCIDQ exam starting six months out to become certified in interior design. Then depending upon which state they settle in they can research the practice and title acts to become Registered Interior Designers (RID) or a Certified Interior Designer (CID). Through certification and licensure, interior designers can produce construction documents, manage their own projects, and even have their own business.
