The academic curriculum of the Department of Interior Design emphasizes four core areas: Basic Knowledge, Interior Human Environment Needs, Professional and Practice, and Communication. Based on these emphases, the courses in the Department of Interior Design are categorized into three groups:

1. Interior Design Expertise Courses, consisting of interior design studio courses and other supporting studios.

2. Managerial and Communication Courses, covering theoretical and scientific knowledge in interior design.

3. Supporting Courses, consisting of general supporting subjects.

These three categories are developed through a combination of Student-Centered Learning (SCL) and the Laboratory-Based Education (LBE) model.

This combination fosters a studio system that is carried out with comprehensive and holistic guidance. In addition, design objects and topics of discussion in lectures are drawn from real-world cases. The integration of the studio system and its learning model equips students with the ability to produce complete and compelling interior design outcomes that address real challenges encountered in interior design projects.
