5 OFFICIAL BACHELOR DEGREE IN INTERIOR DESIGN Equivalent, in all respects, to a University Degree granting access to the Official Master. Higher Art Education in Interior Design adapted to the European Higher Education Area. An interior designer should be able to analyze, research, design and direct interior design project teams and implementation teams, as well as to act as a direct intermediary before the public administration from its professional scope. The LCI Interior Design course is our response to the growing demand for this professional career, in a sector that now demands increasingly-advanced training and preparation. Society and the business sector need talent that is capable of providing know-how based on both cognitive and functional skills, while providing real-world solutions to everyday situations. Interior design is the implementation of creative knowledge in the developmental process of a product, as well as being a service in a living environment. The proper use of interior design helps to increase value, reduce costs and improve the efficiency of production processes and productivity, as it integrates the dimension of aesthetics with functional, economic, social, cultural and environmental factors.

6 PROFESSIONAL PROFILES The main working areas of a interior designer are: Housing and interior spaces design for the house. Design of commercial and entertainment spaces. Design for administrative spaces. Design for cultural, educative and fun spaces. Design for temporary spaces. Rehabilitation of houses. Landscaping and design of public spaces. Business management of creative activities. Design of interior spaces of different transport systems. Works, measures and budget management and risk prevention in the field of interior design.

9 STRUCTURE Basic training Introductory courses enabling students to acquire the fundamental knowledge required to study the specialized subjects as the course progresses. These are essential. Specific compulsory training Core training In this group of subjects you will find more specific material and the student will be asked to acquire and master knowledge, techniques, and manufacturing processes. Optional This set of subjects make up the specialization body of the studies and are always divided into three possible itineraries, from which the students can choose. Students will be asked a plus to add personal initiative for experimentation and ability to innovate. The spark that makes you different. Mobility programs LCI Barcelona, Official School of Higher Education in Design, is part of the LCI Education Network. Therefore, students have the possibility of completing a part of their study program in another LCI Education campus, thanks to the Studies Abroad program. Also students may apply for exchanges with European universities and schools through the ERASMUS+ program. These exchanges will be completed during the second half of the third year. External internships Implementation of everything the student has learned. The center offers students a long list of partnership agreements with companies, but also allows students to seek alternatives on their own. End-of-course project Under the personalized supervision of a tutor, an active working professional of the center, students will research and create the End-of-course project. Apply all your skills to get the best result!
