Ryerson School of Interior Design Internationally Acclaimed

Ryerson’s School of Interior Design has been named one of the top three schools of its kind in the world by an internationally renowned magazine.

In its special 25^th anniversary issue, Azure magazine puts Ryerson alongside Harvard, Columbia, Yale, MIT, University of Pennsylvania, University of Art and Design Lausanne, Royal College of Art (London) and others in its guide ‘to the best design schools worldwide.’

Ryerson’s School of Interior Design is named with Parsons The New School for Design in New York City, and Rhode Island School of Design in Providence, as the top three interior design schools on the planet.

The magazine asked 100 international architects, interior designers, industrial designers and other practitioners to contribute to the survey. “Some of the biggest names in the design world weighed in”, the magazine notes.

It describes Ryerson this way:

“Ryerson dominates the discussion about the best interior design school in Canada, and graduates are equipped with the necessary technical skills to hit the ground running when they leave school. Instruction extends from the ‘how’ of design, to communication skills such as freehand drawing, CAD and oral presentation, as well as classes in liberal arts, the humanities, social sciences and the history of design.”
