Our MA in Interior Design (with optional Professional Placement) is for professional and newly qualified designers. It will challenge you to formulate your own rigorous, critically independent responses to a specific area of interior design that interests you.
Rooted in creative practice, through discussion and group crits you’ll form a uniquely individual, tailor made programme of study within the School’s master’s programme.
Alongside your studies you will have the opportunity to go on trips to visit galleries and exhibitions relating to your studies.
Why study with us
- You’ll benefit from a staff of leading academics and practising designers and a programme of guest lecturers alongside skills specific workshops.
- You can choose to work within an established area of contemporary interior design practice or explore the potential for design diversity.
- A special feature of the MA programme is the blend of practice and theory which’ll underpin your project.
What you'll do
- You’ll be part of, and learn alongside, a large and varied postgraduate design community in the School; sharing knowledge and accessing a wide range of staff skills and resources.
- Successful completion of a combination of research and practice modules leads to the MA award or Intermediate Diploma or Certificate exit awards.
- Practical work is carried out within our extensive and very well equipped studios and workshops.

My name is Kavisha Prince Anthony, and I always had a dream of studying abroad. Thankfully, that dream came to life since I applied to the Study Advisor. I was able to receive my visa within four days. I also had some visa refusals in the past; I had about six UK visa refusals in the past, but thankfully, it was not an issue since the Study Advisor was able to make things work this time. I highly recommend Study Advisor for your dreams of going abroad, whether it be the UK or any other European country there is.
