The Interior Architecture program is distinguished by its strong connections
with the design profession and recognises the importance of establishing an
interface between students and practitioners. Interior Architecture
Professional Practice Week is an annual event that enables students at every
year level to apply their practical, theoretical and philosophical knowledge
to professional design practice. It also gives students the opportunity to
become familiar with the nature of the interior design profession providing
valuable insight that can assist them in their career planning.
Interior Architecture Professional Practice Week 2009 includes a seminar
panel of interior design practitioners that allow final year students an
opportunity to gather career planning advice and discuss the nature of
contemporary interior design practice; career talks by practicing interior designers
for 1st year students; and the launch of the Mentor Scheme for
final year students and the Workplacement requirement for 2nd and 3rd year
students. The week is highlighted by a social event for students,
practitioners and invited guests with an exhibition of current studio work,
which allowed students and professionals to network informally and establish
contact.
