    • NOTE

      *This course is designed to be the 2nd course within a series. If a student has not had Interior Design I, then Topics 2-8 will need to be covered in classroom teaching or a self-paced study and the second year students may need a refresher of some of the unit topics. The focus of this course is for the student to spend time completing two of the Comprehensive Projects of Topic 12. The student should spend time with a mentor whether in-person or virtually. Also, the Career Development of Topic 1 should be high priority of this course and can be implemented with the Mentorship unit. Local visitation to new construction, remodels, etc. of commercial and residential sites is highly recommended.
