Course programme

Course structure

Year 1 introduces you to knit, print and weave, after which you will specialise in order to fully explore media and materials, textile design, construction, and fabric realisation for fashion.

Year 2 offers textiles design projects aimed at appropriate fashion market sectors. You develop communication and presentation skills for the workplace reflected in a professional portfolio.

In year 3 you develop a textiles sample collection and professional portfolio appropriate to your chosen textiles specialism. The work that you generate will respond to a particular market sector that you establish at the beginning of your final year of study.
