Carina Tjandradipura telah bergabung menjadi staf pengajar di Program Studi Desain Interior, FSRD, Universitas Kristen Maranatha sejak tahun 2009.  Pada tahun 2005, ia melanjutkan studi di jurusan Interior Universitas Kristen Maranatha. Walau seorang alumni jurusan Administrasi Bisnis FISIP dari Universitas Katolik Parahyangan, ia tetap tertarik untuk bersekolah kembali di jurusan baru. Pada tahun 2011, ia melanjutkan studi di Prodi Magister Desain, Institut Teknologi Bandung, yang selesai dirampungkan pada tahun 2013. Hal tersebut terinspirasi dari keinginannya untuk berusaha mengedepankan dan meningkatkan pendidikan bagi masyarakat Indonesia agar tidak kalah bersaing dengan sumber daya manusia mancanegara. Pengalaman bekerja selama 9 tahun di FSRD, menyadarkan Carina akan pentingnya keinginan untuk selalu belajar bagi kalangan akademisi. Ia terus bertekad untuk mendalami ilmu desain interior, khususnya di bidang ilmu kajian Sosial Budaya (culture studies) sesuai dengan minat dan Kelompok Bidang Keahlian.
