I am a second year student and I am having trouble between choosing my Bachelors in arch or in Interior design. i know for fact I want to get my M.Arch, but which is a better route. My school separates the two, but personally I feel like they should go hand in hand. I wish I could minor in Interior design, but that is not allowed. I have to declare my major in 2 weeks. I think which ever one I choose, I will do well in because I am really passionate about both. I guess my main issue is when going to get my M.Arch which will help more. I thought that getting my bachelors would make me a little bit more diverse, but then I hear so many people saying that Architects can do it all. If anyone has taken the Bachelors in Interior/M.arch route, was it worth it, pro vs cons, etc. Same question for B.arch/M.Arch.
In general the architecture programs tend to be more rigorous and conceptual than interior design programs, there are a few great interior programs that you would be fine with as long as you got an m.arch after, you just definitely need the m.arch no matter what.
B.arch/M.arch vs B.Interior Design/M.arch
Hello,

Thanks
why even consider interior?
remember, anyone can do interior design but interior designers can't do architecture.
