Lawrence Technological University’s Bachelor of Science in Interior Design is a professional program that empowers students to create intentional, culturally relevant interiors that are both technically advanced and critically framed. The interdisciplinary curriculum blends hands-on studio experience with courses in design theory, technical skills, and collaborative processes—essential components for successful interior design projects. Through real-world, sponsored projects and internship opportunities, students connect with the local design community, gaining valuable experience with the latest innovations in technology, research, and theory. Graduates leave LTU equipped with the knowledge, skills, and professional portfolio needed to excel in the field.
The program is accredited by the Council for Interior Design Accreditation (CIDA) and LTU is a registered campus center of the International Interior Design Association (IIDA).
For those interested in expanding their expertise into architecture, LTU offers a direct-entry Master of Architecture program, which can be completed in just six years (181 credits) when combined with the Bachelor of Science in Interior Design.
Admission into the Interior Design program follows the University’s admission criteria. Portfolios are not required for admission.
For specific Interior Design program questions, contact the Chair of Design, Philip Plowright, at pplowrigh@ltu.edu. For general questions about admissions, our programs or the college, please contact Associate Dean, Lilian Crum, at lcrum@ltu.edu.
