Learners will be encouraged to generate and express ideas and communicate fashion and textiles solutions, exploring the creative and commercial potential of the medium through practical work.The course is structured to initially give you a broad skillset in year one before narrowing your practice into your specialist area of interest in year two. Contextual / Critical Studies will underpin your practical learning to ensure you are aware of contemporary practice and have the skills to critically analyse and evaluate your own work and the work of others.Work based learning is central to the programme to ensure you have the opportunity to network with practising artists and designers, and work on live projects and gain industry work experience.
