Master of Science in Family and Consumer Sciences - Interior and Environmental Design

The Department of Family and Consumer Sciences offers a Master of Science or Master of Arts degree in Family and Consumer Sciences. The degree program is designed for professionals seeking advanced study in one of the specialty areas of family and consumer sciences. The program is recommended for students whose undergraduate degree is also in Family and Consumer Sciences. It is less appropriate for students with undergraduate degrees in more specific areas (such as a B.A. in Apparel, Merchandizing, and Design). Our department currently offers a master's degree program in Family and Consumer Sciences with an option emphasizing Interior and Environmental Design. This program is appropriate for students with previous degrees in interior design, architecture, construction management, art, design, and other related majors. Our undergraduate program is accredited by the Council for Interior Design Accreditation, formerly known as FIDER, and emphasizes commercial interior design.
