What is... Interior Design?

The MA Interior Design course is one of five delivered through the Creative Arts Masters Platform. Students on the MA Interior Design course will join those on the other studio-based courses in Product Design, Visual Communications, and Fine Art, and those on the Contemporary Visual Culture course, where students study the theory and criticism of contemporary visual culture or the history of art and design. The Platform allows specialisation within a dynamic mix of practical and critical disciplines, placing particular emphasis upon practice engaged with critical and historical debate.

Minimum Entry Requirements

• Bachelor Degree (Honours 2.1 or above) in relevant disciplines.
• Applicants are required to include a portfolio of relevant art/design work and a one-page research proposal with their application.

Course Content

The MA Interior Design is a twelve-month, full-time or twenty four-month, part-time course divided between core modules, including Discourses in Contemporary Art and Design, Research Methods, and a Discipline-Specific Seminar Series, and modules designed to provide core and advanced studio skills. In the final semester/s, students deliver a final project in their specialisation.
