Our 室内建筑 and 设计 Program — the only one of its kind in the state of Idaho — is about enhancing the quality of life for all people through innovative, environmentally friendly and socially conscious design rooted in structural, 科学, architectural principles. We prepare students to design structural interiors that protect the health, safety and welfare of occupants. These designs lead to meaningful spaces that create memories and brand experiences.

As part of a land-grant university committed to improving societal issues in our state, students in our 室内建筑 and 设计 Program frequently work with 真实的伴侣 to develop design solutions that address critical needs and problems while enhancing our communities and the world. One hundred percent of our students participate in meaningful community engagement and service learning projects, which translates to first-hand knowledge, tools and experience highly sought after in the workplace.

Through these hands-on experiences, interior architecture and design students get the know-how they need to build their portfolio and find fulfilling, financially viable jobs. 2022年5月, 2021, 2020 and 2019 graduates who actively searched for employment in the design disciplines had a 100 percent job placement rate by October of the same year — a fairly consistent trend among our graduates.

Our mission is to serve as Idaho’s only public, accredited professional 室内建筑 and 设计 Program, 由 Council for Interior 设计 认证 (CIDA)和 National Association of Schools of Art and 设计 (NASAD). With the academic training from our program, interior architecture and design graduates meet the educational requirements to seek licensure through the National Council for Interior 设计 Qualification.
