Course Overview

BA (Hons) Fashion Culture and Business is a communication and humanities-orientated course that will deliver a curriculum based on the growing emergence of social responsibility within the fashion industry. Fashion communication is evolving. The industry is now pressured to produce 'proactive advocates of diversity and inclusivity'. The course will cater for the need to train literate communication professionals who command an understanding of empathy towards various global audiences.

This course aims to provide you with a pedagogical structure that facilitates learning qualitative and quantitative research methodologies. You will be required to engage with local, national, and international communities to produce outcomes that focus on analysing socioeconomic and geographic phenomena relevant to the fashion industry.

The course will allow you to work closely with other students within the University of East London's Fashion Department and other School of Arts and Creative Industries departments.

The course will also focus on utilising the University of East London's rich background in diverse student cohorts by conducting research that engages with active students and, potentially, alums whilst following the University's protocols on ethics in research.
