The 31 Guidelines of Kitchen Planning according to NKBA Industry Standards is the foundation for spaces planning Kitchen work centers and materials today. The study of Materials is a major competency of the course, which includes cabinetry, hardware, countertops, appliances, plumbing, lighting, floor covering, wall finish, and window type and treatments. The course is technical and skill oriented and stresses the accurate material estimation and ordering of a total kitchen project. Online electronic catalogs accessed from Manufacturer web sites are used to download Andersen window CAD symbols, and plumbing and appliance specifications and pricing.
Prerequisites
Architectural Graphics and Color Theory need to have been completed. CAD for Interior Designers is a course the student needs to be enrolled in during the same Fall Semester as Kitchen & Lighting Design.

Academic Integrity
Academic Integrity is submitting one's own work and properly acknowledging the work of others. Cheating, plagiarism, or fabrication constitutes academic dishonesty and is subject to disciplinary action.
According to Webster, to plagiarize is "to steal or pass off the ideas or words of another as one's own….to use created productions without crediting the source….to commit literary theft….to present as new and original an idea or product derived from an existing source."
Kirkwood students are responsible for authenticating any assignment submitted to an instructor. If asked, you must be able to produce proof that the assignment you submitted is actually your own work. Therefore, we recommend that you engage in a verifiable working process on assignments. Keep copies of all drafts of your work, make photocopies of research materials, write summaries of research materials, hang onto Writing Center receipts, keep logs or journals of your work on assignments and papers, learn to save drafts or versions of assignments under individual file names on the computer, diskette, etc.
The inability to authenticate your work, should an instructor request it, is sufficient grounds for failing the assignment.
In addition to requiring a student to authenticate his/her work, Kirkwood Community College instructors may employ various other means of ascertaining authenticity such as engaging in internet searches, creating quizzes based on student work, requiring students to explain their work and/or process orally, etc.
