Enrol onto our Interior Design BA(Hons) course and we’ll help you develop the skills you need to become a professional interior designer.
Through a supportive learning journey, you’ll be encouraged to imagine what is possible and develop your own design practice, discovering how to transform space and questioning the future of retail, leisure and workspaces and all interior environments beyond the domestic.
With an emphasis on creativity, you can explore current design thinking, using this to push design boundaries and to focus on new ways of transforming future spatial environments.
**Why Study Interior Design BA(Hons) at University of Huddersfield?**
On campus, you’ll learn in the £30-million Barbara Hepworth Building, which provides facilities such as 3D printers for rapid prototyping; laser cutters, special software, studios and more. You can opt to undertake a work placement in a professional design practice, too, giving you the chance to gain hands-on experience and build your portfolio to boost your employment prospects.
If design studies interest you, this Interior Design course will certainly satisfy your passion for interiors, creative design, art, and creative architecture. An impressive 90% of graduates from this course are in work and/or further study 15 months after graduating (Unistats 19/20 data, UK domiciled graduates).
You can focus on the practical elements of interior design, and you can get involved in projects across several typologies, building your own portfolio as you move through the course.
We’ll aim to give you a thorough grounding in all the technical demands of detailing and specification alongside the creative aspects. An interior design degree can lead you to a host of opportunities, too; you may decide to pursue a career in Interior Design itself, or branch out into art, graphic design, illustration and more.
