Ryerson School of Interior Design:
The mission of Ryerson University’s School of Interior Design is to educate students for the dynamic, complex and demanding practice of Interior Design in a learning environment that balances the theoretical and the practical, the experiential and the conceptual. Drawing on the resources of a vibrant city and a university dedicated to the advancement of applied knowledge, the School prepares graduates for leadership in the Interior Design profession through understanding and consideration of the technological, aesthetic, ideological, environmental, cultural and social dimensions of the built environment.
OUR PHILOSOPHY
The School of Interior Design is housed within the Faculty of Communication and Design and reflects an integration of theory and practice designed to develop practitioners who graduate from the school with both professional skills and the critical and intellectual capacity to assume positions of leadership. An immersive environment introduces interior design students to the terminology, marketplace, and professional issues of practice, while an experiential curriculum emphasizes both studio and workshop to stimulate creativity, experimentation, problem solving and innovation. Important values for the school are creativity, passion, diversity, commitment, collaboration, excellence and vision.
