Course General Description

The program differentiates itself by providing a structured curriculum with a singular emphasis on developing capable, innovative, and professional fashion designers, with a comprehensive knowledge of both moderate and designer markets. Unlike other programs, where students compete for faculty attention and resources, our students receive an abundance of guidance from faculty in a resource-rich environment that encourages collaboration to accelerate their development. For decades, this formula has proven successful in preparing students for a seamless transition into the industry. This is evidenced by approximately 86% of each graduating class employed as Assistant Fashion Designers within 3 months of graduation.
