As the Program Director of Design Institute of San Diego, I welcome our students to the exciting, multi-faceted future of the interior design profession. By providing the unique opportunity to learn from practicing professionals – both inside and outside the classroom – the CIDA accredited BFA degree program at Design Institute recognizes that becoming an interior design professional involves far more than simply developing outstanding creative and technical skills.

The ability to think and design critically, globally, and sustainably are the value-added skills we believe are essential to the development of an interior designer… an individual who will be able to enter the profession with the creative vision and personal perspective needed to significantly enhance and enrich the places where people live and work. Learning interior design has never been so rewarding. Our interior design courses inform, educate and inspire.

I invite you to join other gifted students from across the globe; students who have discovered why, since 1977, Design Institute of San Diego is the "school of choice" for anyone who cares about the quality of our world and is seeking the finest in interior design education.
