Interior Design/Architecture program in Montreal?
I'm a 27-yr-old Shanghainese who's immigrating to Montreal around end of this year. After getting a BA in French with a top Chinese university and a degree of Political sciences from Science Po, French's Yale in terms of presidents' cradle, I'm holding a decent and well-paid job with a decent multinational company. However, I'm not fulfilled of being an Admin & HR Manager and I know clearly that my future will not be a bright one if i don't shift asap to a career to which I can devote all my passion and inspiration. I'm not interested in dealing relationship with people, money; while quite absorbed in maths especially geometry, drawing especially sketching, geography especially human and travel geography, and almost all kinds of Fine arts & Studio arts. Since i was a little girl, I've always dreamed to be a designer (be it in the fields of fashion, decoration, packaging, etc.). I posses a considerable portfolio of my art & design works. Even my graduation thesis is on Haute couture/Luxurious Ready-to-wear (there was no topic limit as long as it's written in French). Thus I regard my immigration as an opportunity and encouragement for me to challenge myself to start a brand new tough but fulfilling life. Now my targeted programs are Interior Design with University of Montreal and Architecture with Mcgill. Both have pros and cons. The first one is 3-yr program which seems more practical for me. But I'm worrying that finding a job out of Quebec(for example US, or my homeland China) might be difficult with a degree from a French-language university; while the alternative, the Architecture program with Mcgill will take 4.5 yrs and be much more demanding on my talent, diligence, memory and energy, anyway greater challenge for a 27 yr-old one. I chose French to be my university major as I want to be closer to Arts; I learnt Italian by myself (and i master the language) also because of my affection towards arts; but all that I did and I'm doing is indirect and proved to be unwise. Who can help me and lead me a wiser way to pursue my art dream? Thank you a thousand times.
