The Interior Design program at West Virginia University is a four-year CIDA (Council for Interior Design Accreditation) accredited program with an international focus. There is a competitive entry system, and students are evaluated at the end of their first year and chosen based on their performance in interior design courses, projects, and overall grade point average. Students in our program are involved in a variety of hands-on activities throughout their curriculum, and experience many opportunities to participate in “real world” design applications.
