Introduction and Purpose
The trend in university curricula is toward a reduction in the Housing major, and a parallel increased focus on Interior Design. As this educational shift takes place, it is important to determine whether those students intending to seek employment in the housing industry can benefit from the interior design curriculum. The specific objective of this study is to determine whether any overlap exists in the competencies needed by professionals in housing, and by professionals in interior design.
