Students who are drawn towards the intricacies of interior design may opt for the Diploma in Interior Design programme. The programme helps students develop creative solutions to design problems by applying fundamental research techniques, design thinking and effective communication skills.

Classes for this programme are multi-disciplinary as they incorporate topics from various fields such as psychology, sociology, history, management and business practices, ensuring students are well-equipped when entering the workforce and primed to be future game-changers. Moreover, students of this programme will enjoy paid membership with the Malaysian Institute of Interior Designers (MIID), courtesy of First City University College.
