Fashion and textiles can take you farther than you imagined — with programs that reflect the realities of the fashion and retail world. Collaborate on industry-sponsored projects for clients like Macy’s, NASA, QVC, Target, Under Armour, Urban Outfitters and more. Learn about fashion and textiles from the inside out, because it’s more than just pretty clothing. It’s also about the people who make the fashion and textile industries run, evolve and progress. It’s the fabricators, suppliers, merchandisers, engineers, marketers and event planners — from concept to consumer and the marriage of fabric to frame.
