Why Major In Interior Design?
The Interior Design program at the O’More College of Architecture & Design at Belmont focuses on cultivating future professionals equipped with creative and technical skillsets, trained to design equitable user-centered environments and inspired to be leaders within their chosen vocation.
It is both a rigorous and rewarding program, rooted in internationally recognized standards set by the Council for Interior Design Accreditation (CIDA) , equipping future licensed interior designers for their chosen vocation.
Our program boasts award-winning students that compete regularly in national competitions and win, such as the prestigious Donghia Scholarship.
Our students are coveted among the design community and sought-after for internships and future employment opportunities. Our alumni are well-positioned and active members of the Nashville and broader design realms.
We believe in instilling a passion for life-long learning and serving the community through transformational design.
The program is ever-evolving to stay at the forefront of design futures and we value having faculty who are practicing interior designers and architects in the classroom to educate and mentor our students.
We build relationships with students and understand that these relationships do not stop at graduation.
We believe in a classroom that extends beyond the walls of the Belmont campus. In addition to multiple “on-site” visits within the Nashville community, we offer opportunities to travel and be exposed to various cultures.
These life experiences contribute to the introspective nature of design. We want your education to be challenging, enlightening and invaluable.
The Interior Design program at Belmont not only prepares the student for a successful career but a meaningful career.
