SEQUENCING GUIDELINES FOR: INTERIOR DESIGN DEPARTMENT (Division of Technology & Engineering) Fullerton Community College The Interior Design Department offers three paths to completing a design certificate, and a path to acquiring an Associate in Science Degree: 1. Interior Merchandising -Level 1 Certificate 2. Commercial Design Certificate 3. Residential Design Certificate 4. Interior Design Assistant Associate in Science Degree Every semester the Division of Technology & Engineering provides a blue sheet on which one side is printed the required courses for each of the three certificates available, and on the reverse side is printed the current semester schedule which, of course, varies with each semester. This program involves many time-intensive lab/studio classes. A student should avoid taking too many lab classes in one semester as it might be overwhelming if he or she is not yet familiar with the requirements of this discipline. In addition, these sequences have been listed per semester in a manner that ensures the student will not be taking a class for which he or she might not be fully prepared. Due to the multiple lab/studio classes and the fact that many students hold part-time or full-time jobs, most students take six semesters to finish the program with a commercial certificate and/or a residential certificate, or the AS Degree. The following is a recommended sequence of classes for completion of each of the three certificates and/or the AS Degree; this should be viewed concurrently with the above-mentioned blue sheet. Pre-requisites, advisories and recommendations are not called-out here but can be found in the school catalog and in the schedule of classes. (The printing of these guidelines is concurrent with the 2017-2018 catalog.) If you would like assistance with determining the classes for which you should enroll, or simply have a question, please contact one of the following Interior Design Department faculty: Brian Kaneko bkaneko@fullcoll.edu 714-992-7561 (office) Adriana Currie acurrie@fullcoll.edu 714-267-2288 (cell)
