Programme Specification
Foundation in Fashion Online
The programme is structured around dedicated pathways that provide an overview of key aspects of the industry. For example, in the Fashion course, participants will be introduced to basic concepts of fashion design, fashion business, and fashion styling. All foundation year programs cover essential methods and techniques for exploring and researching fashion and design, as well as presenting skills, analyzing the fashion, design, and other creative industries, and examining the materials, tools, and techniques used in each area. Selected contents will be designed to be specifically experienced by students in a metaverse environment.
By utilizing an innovative set of online and interactive tools as well, students will develop an individual approach to creative expression and conceptual thinking, which they can further refine in their chosen undergraduate program. Academic fulfillment is at the heart of the study plan and is also incorporated with language study skills, concentrating on the communication of ideas in both verbal and written formats – with knowledge of subject-specific jargon provided.
Upon completion of the course, participants will have compiled a portfolio of work and gained the knowledge and skills they need to make an informed decision about the undergraduate program that best aligns with their interests, passions, and abilities.
