    • About MFA Double Major Lighting Design + Interior Design

    Beginning in 2012, The School of Constructed Environments offers an MFA double major combining the established Master of Fine Arts Interior Design and Master of Fine Arts Lighting Design programs. The unique curricular track allows students to deeply investigate the design of environments and human inhabitation with a focus on the relationship between light, materials and interior volumetric space. The three-year MFA track will enable students to develop critical sustainable design thinking and technical skills associated with lighting design and interior design.

    For more information, including admission, curriculum, faculty, and courses, visit MFA Double Major Lighting + Interior Design on the Parsons website.
