Bachelor in Interior Architecture and Environmental Design

This bachelor's program in Interior Architecture and Environmental Design focuses on planning and designing interior spaces and the surrounding built environment to serve functional, aesthetic, and human-centered needs. Students study design theory, spatial planning, materials and construction methods, lighting, furniture design, and sustainability principles, often working through studio-based projects that simulate professional design practice. Coursework typically combines technical skills such as drafting and computer-aided design with creative and conceptual design development. Graduates work in interior design and architecture firms, construction and real estate companies, and design consultancies, taking on roles that shape residential, commercial, and public interior spaces. This program runs for 4 years and is taught in English at Özyeğin University in İstanbul, Turkey. The curriculum builds from foundational design and drawing courses toward specialized studio work in interior architecture, environmental design, and sustainable building practices. İstanbul's rich architectural history alongside its contemporary design and construction industry gives students exposure to a wide range of design traditions and professional practice. Over the 4-year program, students develop both the technical and creative skills needed for careers in interior architecture and environmental design.
