 Connacht College of Design in Ireland

The Connacht College of Design specialises in
the Diploma in Professional Interior Design. It
is the only course that we offer, so we can
concentrate on keeping it fresh and up to date
each year. We offer classes in smaller rural
areas outside the larger cities. In this way,
students who live in rural areas do not have to
travel to Dublin, Cork, etc. and can avail of
Higher Education in Interior Design. We simply
locate a large, safe hotel with excellent
conference facilities, and rent this for the
school year. The Course Director and creator,
Amanda Stuart-Heaney, has over twenty-five years
experience teaching and working in Interior
Design. Amanda received her training in interior
design at the Fashion Institute of Technology in
New York City. For 15 years she worked as a
