Last Question: The Interior Design program at MRU encourages students to support each other in their learning. You have likely experienced helping another student with a problem, been helped by another student, or have seen this kind of activity with others. What many students do not know is that MRU offers formal "peer tutoring" as well to help students who may be uncomfortable with offering or seeking assistance. Tutors are free to those who request them, and the Tutors get paid by MRU for their assistance.
