Bachelor of Technology in Interior Design Technology

Interior design technology blends creativity with technical know-how. This degree programme at Kumasi Technical University prepares you to plan, design, and manage interior spaces that are both beautiful and functional. As a graduate, you could work in architecture firms, construction companies, or as an independent designer.

What interior design technology really involves

Programmes of this kind usually cover the principles of interior design, including space planning, colour theory, lighting, materials, and furniture design. They also introduce the technology side, such as computer-aided design (CAD), 3D visualisation, and building information modelling (BIM), which are used to turn ideas into realistic drawings and simulations. You learn how to create spaces that are not only pleasing to the eye but also safe, durable, and efficient to use.

The skills you build along the way

Throughout the programme, you develop a mix of creative and practical skills. You learn to read and produce technical drawings, manage design projects, and communicate your ideas clearly to clients and builders. You also gain an understanding of local building materials and construction methods, which is useful when working in the Ghanaian context. These skills prepare you to handle a design from first concept to final completion.

How competitive is entry to this programme?

This programme is less competitive than many other degree courses at Kumasi Technical University. That means your WASSCE grades do not need to be exceptional to get a place. As with all degree programmes, you must meet the basic entry requirements, but you have a good chance if your results are solid. You can check your grades against the official requirements to see if you qualify.
