Key course benefits;

* This course benefits from being taught alongside our Fashion, Brand and Communication and International Fashion Business courses, to widen your knowledge and exposure to other subject areas and professions. You will have the opportunity to collaborate with other students, so you can share your insights and experience which will help you to develop and learn. * This is a hands-on, creative course. With theory embedded throughout module activities, the work you undertake will be creative in its content and approach. You will work towards creating fashion artefacts (in their broadest definition), demonstrating your skills as an innovative and directional practitioner who is able to realise ideas as brave, experimental outcomes.* You will be able to access industry standard facilities* in the purposely designed Art and Design buildings enabling you to work in a range of scales, materials and processes. * You will be encouraged to develop and apply both 2D and 3D techniques and will apply both analogue (traditional) and digital (new technology) approaches to ensure you develop individual creative identities and ways of working relevant to current and emerging creative sector standards. * This course, along with others in the suite of Fashion courses is highly internationally focused. Students benefit from a wealth of international experience established by the course founders; who are passionate about ensuring global collaboration and industry readiness and who seek opportunities to develop solid international awareness and experience where possible. *For further information please check the course page on the Coventry University website.
