4 1 INTRODUCTION, DEPARTMENT OVERVIEW AND MASTERS PROGRAMS Introduction Welcome to the Interior Design Program at the University of Manitoba. We are pleased that you have decided to pursue your degree with us and sincerely hope that you find it an enjoyable and rewarding experience. This document contains information that will help to familiarize new and current students with the way that the Department and the its program operate. It also contains other practical information that we hope will assist you throughout the time you spend in the program. The document is an accompaniment to the University of Manitoba Undergraduate Calendar, the Faculty of Graduate Studies Regulations, and the Department of Interior Design Supplemental Regulations. Department Overview The Department of Interior Design is one of four professional master s level programs in the Faculty of Architecture. The other professional programs are Architecture, City Planning and Landscape Architecture. The Faculty also has an undergraduate Environmental Design program. The department offers both undergraduate and graduate programs, and three access points (Image 1). Image 1 Department of Interior Design Overview Access point 1 is the normal entry point for students with no prior post-secondary education. After two years of study with other students in University One and Environmental Design, students can choose the Interior

5 Environments Option (IEO) at the end of their second year. After two years of IEO, students graduate with a Bachelor of Environmental Design (B.Env.D.) with the Interior Environments Option designation. This is a nonprofessional, non-accredited program. Access point 2 is the Pre-Masters entry point for students who do not possess an interior design degree from a recognized institution. Students in the Pre-Masters program are normally required to complete 30 credit hours (2 terms) of coursework.if subsequent success in applying to the Masters of Interior Design program is not attained, Pre-Masters students may be allowed to complete a second year of Pre-Masters study in order to demonstrate that the necessary development of fundamental interior design knowledge and skills has been achieved. If a second year of Pre-Masters study is required, the courses to be taken will be determined on a case-by-case basis by the Department Head in consultation with departmental faculty. The second year normally consists of design studios, five supporting courses and an elective. Students do not receive a degree for this year (or two) of study as it is viewed strictly as a preparation for applying to the Master of Interior Design Program. Access point 3 is the normal entry point for students who hold a post-secondary education degree in interior design (or equivalent). Masters Programs Within the masters program, there are two streams: a first-professional and a post-professional. The firstprofessional Master of Interior Design (MID) program is directed towards those interested in pursuing a career in interior design practice. The program emphasizes the creation of human-centered and context-based design solutions that respond to the needs of contemporary life. The program requires a minimum of two full calendar years of study to complete. The First-Professional program is accredited by the Council for Interior Design Education Accreditation (CIDA). Graduates normally proceed to certification from the National Council of Interior Design Qualification (NCIDQ) and membership in a professional interior design association. Following the completion of required studios and course work, the Practicum Project is the final project that is required for the successful completion of the first-professional degree. The student works in consultation with an Advisory Committee to formulate and develop the design project. The student must demonstrate a high level of achievement in design, critical thinking and communication skills as well as an ability to work independently. Stages of the Practicum Project: Project Proposal: A description of the theoretical basis, method (s) of inquiry, site, client and precedents that will inform the design. Investigation: Development of the practicum gets underway on approval of the Project Proposal by the department s Graduate Program Committee (GPC).

6 Intermediate Review: A public presentation of highlights from the written document, the design programme and the preliminary stage drawings for review by the Advisory Committee. On successful completion of the Intermediate Review, students proceed to detailed design development. Students must submit a completed Examiner s Form (Appendix 6.6) to the Graduate Student Advisor prior to the Intermediate Review. Final Examination: A presentation of the completed Practicum Project to the Examining Committee (the former Advising Committee). Intermediate and final presentations for first-professional students must be scheduled on pre-determined dates (see Timelines) with exceptions made only to accommodate unavoidable schedule conflicts for committee members. The Post-Professional Master of Interior Design (MID) is directed to those who already hold an accredited First-Professional degree in Interior Design. The program has a research orientation and is intended to further knowledge in specific areas of the discipline. The program requires a minimum of one-and-a-half years of full time study to complete. The Thesis is a formal, written document that is required for the Post-Professional MID degree. The thesis describes original research on a chosen subject. The original work may include investigation aimed at the discovery and/or the interpretation of facts, challenge and/or possible revisions of accepted theories or laws, or ordering and synthesizing of existing findings to support a conclusion which could open up new research directions. Stages of the Thesis: Research Thesis proposal: The proposal defines the theoretical basis and research methods to be used to investigate the chosen topic. Research: Development of the Thesis gets underway on approval of the Thesis Proposal by the department s Graduate Program Committee (GPC). Intermediate Review: Oral presentation of the developing research and report for review by the Advisory Committee. Students must submit a completed Examiner s Form (Appendix 6.6) to the Graduate Student Advisor prior to Intermediate Review. On successful completion of the Intermediate review, student proceeds to final report writing. Oral Examination: A presentation of the completed Thesis to the Examining Committee (the former Advising Committee). Post-professional students are welcome to participate on the presentation dates established for firstprofessional students, but it is not a requirement. Post-professional presentations should be scheduled in consultation with committee members and the Department Head.
