Career Research Assignment

Choose an area of interior design or a related field you are specifically interested in. Use Table 1.4 in your textbook (pg. 32-35) for jobs in the interior design industry. Choose several possibilities because no two students can have the same category.

Research your approved career choice and report your findings to the class. You may put your information in a PowerPoint presentation, or just prepare an info sheet for your classmates.
