This program in Design (Fashion & Textiles) aims to approach the development of students from an all-encompassing perspective and enable them to solve complex and challenging problems in the Fashion industry. Students in this program engage in course work and industry-centric experiences to demonstrate the advanced knowledge and skills required in the profession, such as examining trends, applying theories, and familiarising oneself with government policies that impact the fashion business. The course demands an in-depth design knowledge and a judicious application of the creative thinking process that is expected from people wanting to break into fashion design. The course aims to educate individuals with a relevant design background of around 2 to 3 years, or around 3 to 4 years of industry experience to function as higher managers and specialists for the dynamic fashion industry, either in India or abroad. The first phase of the course – “the bridge” – aims to build a sound foundational grounding for all candidates in the first year of the course. The learning in this course is constructed progressively through a mix of core and specialised subjects. This course integrates learning and its application for each project, in addition to industry engagement opportunities. The course provides flexibility and mobility to students to help them choose their path and progress at a comfortable pace – as per their aptitude and ability – helping them transform from learners to professionals.
