School Details
In 1916, Sherrill Whiton established the New York School of Interior Decoration. At the time, interior design was just beginning to take shape as a distinct and recognized profession—one that required training in everything from art history to the play of light on walls and other surfaces. Today, the school still holds to the firm belief in the importance of sustainability, in fostering the dialogue between the fields of interior design and architecture, and in the future of accreditation standards in the education and licensing of practitioners in the interior design profession.
New York School of Interior Design offers associate’s, bachelor’s, and master’s degrees in interior design, as well as professional certificates. Master’s degrees, associate’s degrees, and a certificate are offered completely online. NYSID online degrees are about “…convenience and flexibility without sacrificing any of the academic rigor of an onsite class.” Learn from the same faculty as on-campus students and still get to know your peers while studying wherever it is convenient.
