Interior Design & Art History

The Interior Design & Art History department at Mount Royal University is home to two dynamic programs of study: Mount Royal’s celebrated Bachelor of Applied Interior Design and the newly implemented Art History Minor.

The Interior Design program is one of only five undergraduate-level programs in Western Canada accredited by the Council for Interior Design Accreditation (CIDA) and combines theory and practice, preparing you to succeed within the growing design industry.

Students studying for a Bachelor of Arts degree may now earn an Art History Minor by completing eight ARTH courses from those offered by the department.
