From the Program Director

Dear Prospective Students:

Welcome to the Southern Miss Interior Design Program. As the interim director for the Interior Design Program, I am excited about the impending opportunities for our University, the Department of Art and Design, the Interior Design Program, and, most importantly, our students. While the ever-changing profession of interior design keeps us on our toes, we are also embracing positive changes at the University level which brings excitement and anticipation into the lives of our students and colleagues. It is a great time to be at Southern Miss! 

If you are considering a major of Interior Design, you should know the University of Southern Mississippi offers a diverse learning experience that will set the foundation for a successful career in residential or commercial design. The field of interior design is broad, and we pride ourselves on the fact that our students are finding jobs in a variety of areas, including kitchen and bath firms, architectural firms, interior design firms, federal government positions, as well as representatives for major manufacturing firms. At Southern Miss, we will help you find the avenue that best suites your personality and skills. 

At the University of Southern Mississippi 's Interior Design Program, our diversity also extends to the demographics of our student enrollment. Over the past several years, our program has seen a steady increase in cultural diversity, including ethnicity, race, and gender. Many of our students consist of second-degree and non-traditional students, junior and community college transfer students, as well as the traditional recent high school graduates. Some of our students commute from nearby communities, while other students move from out-of-state and from overseas. 

We invite you to visit our studio facilities, meet our passionate faculty and view the quality of our student work. We look forward to meeting each and every prospective student, and showing you all the things our program has to offer. 

Best Regards,

Claire Hamilton, ASID, IDEC
Interim Program Director, Interior Design Program
The University of Southern Mississippi
