In the Degree Programme in Clothing Design you have the chance to grow into a fashion expert. The programme focuses on the well-being that clothes bring to people in terms of fashion, sports and activity. We carry out clothing design projects for our partner organisations. The diversity of nature and variations between seasons provide our students with the chance to gain first-hand knowledge of the requirements for clothing in different conditions and activities by testing them in practice. For our exchange students we have put together an English-taught study module in Clothing Design. Check the Admissions pages for further information.
In our studies we focus on developing clothes to serve their purpose. We also look at how clothes serve different consumer groups.
In the advanced studies students are required to produce a career plan and carry out a final project that adheres to the plan, demonstrates their skills and facilitates their transition to work. Students can apply their designer expertise in a range of careers within businesses, organisations and in the culture sector as a fashion designer for performance art, or in research and development tasks in the industry.
