BA (Hons) Fashion Design

Our ambition is for graduates to be 21st-century designers and creative thinkers, highly prized by the creative industries that contribute considerably to economic growth. The activities are predominately studio-based, and skills workshops strongly underpin practice-based make-and-manufacture activities. Key lectures and seminars support learning and speakers from industry, and field trips to Paris and London provide industry relevance to theory and practice-based modules.

You will develop an individual visual language, and will be able to deal effectively with the innovative technological demands of an intensively competitive global marketplace.

Your learning will be supported within a setting that promotes critical intellectual growth, while provoking creative challenges and experiences, embracing fashion design as a viable career pathway.
