Interior Design

Highline College ETPL
The interior design program offers classes that are scheduled Monday through Thursday. Courses vary in structure ranging from studio, lecture, and lab courses. Hybrid courses are emerging to meet a more flexible schedule. Graduates have launched their careers working for both architectural and design firms, both large and small. Others provide design services that are aligned with construction companies and still others work with realtors on staging residential properties. Furniture stores that provide full-service design consulting offer viable positions. Frequently, graduates open their own private consulting practice.
