<p>First of all, what exactly is a "minor?" Is it like a associate degree?</p>
<p>Well, if anybody is knowledgeable of this, if I'm studying architecture, will I also be train as an interior designer? </p>
<p>If not, I can minor in interior design while majoring in architecture?</p>
<p>A minor is simply taking a lot of semester hours in one area of study but not enough for it to be your major area of study. Minimum number of semester hours needed for a minor varies somewhat and depends on minor chosen.</p>
<p>Architecture is not interior design and it does not train you for it. </p>
<p>You cannot minor in interior design at UIUC because UIUC does not have interior design.</p>
<p>Really? Oh well.</p>
<p>A correction if you are thinking of design of the interior stricture -- e.g., where to place and size of rooms, heights of ceilings, wall and door structures, size and mechanics of windows -- as that is part of architecture but not a minor for it.</p>
<p>Not really. I'm talking about designing the color texture everything inside a given room. </p>
<p>about what you said, I know that already.</p>
