Students in the 91福利社 School of Interior Design put what they鈥檝e learned academically into practice at several of the finest architecture and design firms across the nation.
Professional experience in different parts of the country gives students a broader perspective on the profession while helping them explore where they want to live and build their careers. The School of Interior Design works with students to align internship opportunities with those goals.
鈥淪tudents have the opportunity to pursue internships in the geographic areas where they hope to practice after graduation,鈥� said School of Interior Design Dean Anne Martin. 鈥淭hat experience allows them to begin building professional relationships and gain a deeper understanding of the industry while they are still students.鈥�
Summer 2026 interior design majors completed internships in Illinois; Denver, Colorado; Annapolis, Maryland; West Palm Beach, Florida; Atlanta, Georgia; Augusta, Georgia; and at South Carolina firms in Murrells Inlet, Sumter, Columbia, Anderson and Greenville.
The breadth of their experience was equally impressive. Interns contributed to projects spanning resort and hospitality design, faith-based spaces, healthcare, K-12 and higher education, high-end residential projects, large-scale entertainment venues, and athletic facilities.
Through their internships, these emerging designers built professional relationships with designers, architects, and organizations such as ASID, IIDA, and AIA. For many, those connections have already led to full-time job offers prior to graduation and part-time work during their senior year, turning a summer of professional experience into a direct pathway to their careers.
