The Art Institute of Dallas Announces New
Kitchen & Bath Design Program

(DALLAS – February 14, 2008) The Art Institute of Dallas is proud to announce a new Associate of Applied Arts program as of January, 2008 — Kitchen & Bath Design.

The Kitchen & Bath Design associate’s program will prepare students for entry-level positions with a focused specialization in these two important areas of the home. Upon completion of the program, students will be able to participate in the design, sales, and installation of kitchen and bath projects.

Students will study computer-aided drafting in order to plan kitchen and bath spaces in a residential setting. They will learn about lighting, materials, budgets, estimates, building systems, and codes, along with products and appliances. They will also gain skills in business fundamentals such as project bidding, plus an introduction to public relations, marketing, and promotions.

“The Art Institute of Dallas scrutinizes employment trends and expected graduate outcomes through a lengthy evaluation process with both the State Board of Education and our accreditation agency,” says Simon Lumley, President of The Art Institute of Dallas. “We believe an associate’s degree in Kitchen & Bath Design will answer a significant employment need, which has always been the hallmark of each of our degree programs.”

The Kitchen & Bath Design associate’s degree program lasts 7 quarters (approx. 2 academic years) and contains 105 credit hours.
