What will I learn?

The fashion industry is a multi-billion-dollar enterprise that has a huge impact on our world today. The benefits are vast and with a great industry giant such as fashion, comes also a great need for innovators who will think above and beyond the structural norms that has followed fashion through time, and seeks new inspiration and change. At UEL, we pride ourselves in teaching our students to understand the historical context of the creative industries so that they can rise to become innovators and disruptors for the greater advancement of fashion itself.With an eye on sustainability, ethical materials and cultural awareness and diversity in our and the greater society of fashion, students can become designers of influence and fledging stars in a highly saturated market. UEL encourages students to be different and harness their own creative diversity with tools that’ll prepare them for the wider industry and knowledge of how they can progress on their journey.If you don't meet the entry requirements for a BA, you can study this course as an extended, four-year programme.
