Department of Interior Architecture offers a learning environment with a contemporary approach to education for young people of diverse cultural backgrounds. The aim is to provide opportunities for future interior architects to be equipped with necessary knowledge and skills to cope with rapid global changes, to react rationally as well as creatively to contemporary issues in interior architecture, its problems and challenges, within an interdisciplinary approach to education through its distinguished academic infrastructure. The graduates are expected to contribute to the improvement of quality of life as dynamic individuals with a high sense of responsibility and leadership, capable of assuming central roles in teamwork -a global reality of our day.
The Department of Interior Architecture offers a program of study leading to the degree of Master of Science in Interior Architecture (M.Sc. - with thesis) for students whose training and orientation are primarily in Interior Architecture.
The mission of the Interior Architecture Graduate program is to create a high-quality research environment that allows students to specialize in different areas of interior architecture. The program prepares students for their professional life in a multi-disciplinary environment by equipping them with applications related to interior architecture and advanced theoretical research and education. The aim of all the programs offered by the department is to bring students to the level of ability to question or connect theory and practice, to define or describe alternative issues related to interior architecture, and to produce alternative solutions.
