“I am currently pursuing an M.Arch through the South Dakota State University DoArch program. The Interior Design program challenges students to understand a variety of factors throughout the design process. As I progress into the architecture field, I feel as though my ID education prepared me well: empathy, technology, construction practices, communication, responsibility, time-management, self motivation, design thinking, and confidence are all areas in which I have gained valuable skills and now use in professional internships and the M.Arch program.”NA

C.“We are very impressed with the practicum program at SDSU. Sally is a go-getter; willing and interested to learn. She was flexible and willing to adjust when designs evolved. Her ability to listen well, will aid her when it comes to working with clients and also in absorbing information and thriving in a professional setting. ”

“Whitney is an eager learner and a dedicated, exceptional designer. Her diligence in understanding the “why” behind things, finding information and learning codes and regulations are truly commendable. She works well with others, is relate-able to clients and has superior communication skills verbally and graphically.”
