Add flair to your career in fashion with this hands-on degree and develop a broad range of advanced technical and creative skills. Delivered in partnership with the University of Canberra, this course features an innovative and applied approach to fashion education.
You will engage in holistic creative projects and learn problem solving and analytical tasks which will prepare you to work within the industrial, social and cultural creation frameworks needed to build a career in this dynamic field. You will also learn to develop fashion concepts and communicate those concepts through cutting edge visual artefacts, and produce fashion items within well-articulated design briefs. You will learn to excel and are encouraged to venture outside the immediate discipline of fashion design and visual media to assess the needs of the ever-changing global economy to provide design solutions for the future.
You will graduate with advanced technical skills in fashion design and manufacturing, alongside theoretical understandings of how the fashion systems work. You will be able to enter the exciting and diverse fashion industry with a strong commitment to creative approaches for problem solving, and a personal design philosophy which is demonstrated in proficiency in pattern engineering and 3D garment construction though applied apparel technology.
