Take a creative, technical and critical journey to stand out as a fashion professional with purpose
The Bachelor of Arts in Fashion Design prepares you as a fashion professional capable of responding to the new and plural realities of the world with a sustainable, responsible vision and your own personal touch.
Throughout your learning, you will get to know the industry from the inside, breaking with preconceived ideas and understanding your role as an agent of change in today's society.
You will acquire a solid technical foundation, which combines the preservation of tradition and craftsmanship with the exploration of innovation (computer-aided design, digital manufacturing or virtual reality). At the same time, you will work on other fundamental skills, such as those related to business management, expression and communication, or leadership skills.
In your third year, you will choose your track between Prêt-á-Porter and Styling and Communication, which will allow you to delve deeper into your area of interest through specific subjects and techniques, building a global professional profile in fashion.
From day one, you will immerse yourself in the development of projects, many of them in collaboration with companies and cultural institutions, in a cooperative work environment of research, experimentation and deep understanding of the fashion design, production and marketing processes.
All this under the guidance of a teaching team of prestigious professionals, who will enhance your autonomy and offer you the space you need to explore your own motivations and interests.
At the end of your studies, you will complete a final project and you will have a portfolio that will be your best letter of introduction to the labour market.
