STARKVILLE, Miss. 51勛圖厙 State interior design students received 45 of 71 possible awards, including the student team building competition honor, at the American Society of Interior Designers South Central Career Day recently held on the Starkville campus.
Professor Beth Miller, MSU interior design program director, credits the groups success to its involvement in a wide range of university programs, including furniture design, computer renderings, hand renderings and lighting courses.
For the past few years, the MSU interior design program has dominated the competition, and we hope to continue the tradition, Miller said. I think it is evident that student work from MSU is high quality and competitive.
