Program details

The Master of Interior Design (MID) program prepares students to work nationally and internationally at the forefront of the profession.

First-professional program

Expected duration: 2 years

Tuition and fees: Two years tuition, then continuing fees in subsequent years (refer to Graduate tuition and fees)

The first-professional program is directed towards those interested in pursuing a career in Interior Design practice. The program emphasizes the creation of human-centred and context-based design solutions that respond to the needs of contemporary life.

The course of studies consists of the design studio and support courses that develop the methods, processes, technical and theoretical foundations of interior design. There are opportunities for international and cross-cultural study through exchange programs and design studios. Students are required to participate in either a work experience or co-op program.

Post-professional program

Expected duration: 1.5 years

Tuition and fees: One year tuition, then continuing fees in subsequent years (refer to Graduate tuition and fees)

The post-professional program is directed to those who already hold a first-professional qualification in Interior Design. The program has a research orientation and is intended to further the knowledge base in specific areas of the discipline.

Faculty of Architecture’s Cooperative Education/Integrated Work program (Co-op/I) Graduate Option

Students must complete two 10-week work terms to have the Co-op/I option acknowledged on their graduation parchment. Each term requires submission of a written report and portfolio covering the work completed for the professional assignment. These are above and beyond graduate course requirements.

Accreditation

The Interior Design professional program at the University of Manitoba is a recognized accredited program that meets the standards of the Council for Interior Design Accreditation (CIDA).

    • Clearly indicate your name on the portfolio.

    • Do not include additional CDs, videos, films, slides, etc. All work should be integrated into the portfolio.
    • Do not submit unclear or poorly reproduced photographs, reproductions or drawings.

    What to include

    The portfolio should document and convey your design interests, inclinations and passions. These can range from passions underlying hobbies to those that led you to pursue your previous field of academic study. The Admissions Committee is interested in projects that you do on your own, as well as those done for school assignments. These projects can be photographed or copied with accompanying brief descriptions to form the basis of the portfolio.

    This is a list of examples that could be included or form the basis of the portfolio:

    • Written: Poetry, articles, travel journals, research papers, music, etc.
    • Graphic: Photography, sketches, drawings, paintings, or technical drawings, etc.
    • Constructed: Photographs, drawings and sketches of built projects. This could include examples such as: ceramics, models, sculptures, hobbies, instruments, theatre sets, renovations to buildings, objects, cars, and/or photo-documentaries of experiences with building construction.

    The body of work should convey the applicant’s creative experience and/or graphic communication skills attained to date.
