Design is a journey that includes both intellectual and tangible tools for the purpose of reaching the design goal, digital media programs have become an essential necessity in the interior design profession for being capable of making complex tasks in a short time and effort, unlike manual drawings that requires high level of skills, concertation, and time. The purpose of this study is to identify the efficiency of teaching digital media programs in Computer Design courses at the Department of Interior Design, and the importance of applying digital media in its curriculum and its effect after graduation. The researches designed a survey instrument based on previous studies as a tool to inspect the goals of the study, advantages of the course, obstacles facing the students, and their future goals after passing this course. The results acquired by the researchers from the survey and inspection of class projects proved the efficiency of Computer Design courses for other design courses and displayed a positive relationship in shaping the students’ skills to produce clear and professional interior drawings as well as motivate them to perform better.
