Degree Awarded: MIA Interior Architecture The MIA is a studio-based professional degree that prepares graduates to fill leadership positions in interior architecture and design practice and education. Focusing on the development of groundbreaking design solutions to contemporary and emergent societal issues, such as sustainability and health care, this degree draws upon history, theory and criticism to inform a transdisciplinary, evidence-based approach. Studios will have close ties to the allied disciplines of architecture and landscape architecture with faculty from those programs actively involved in teaching studios with an interior architecture concentration. This provides a foundation of interdisciplinary learning, to assist in the understanding of integrated practice. This degree program aims to further a candidate's comprehension of design as a synergistic process of identifying, analyzing and creating useful, beautiful and stimulating interior environments that serve the needs of varied user populations.
