Overview

Fashion Design MA is one of the routes we place students on most often, and it is offered widely enough that there is usually a fit whatever your profile looks like. It is a 1 year postgraduate programme, so the pace is quick and the dissertation carries real weight.

Teaching in Fashion Design is assessed through work you make rather than examinations. We currently work with 25 universities on this course across 19 cities.

The lowest English requirement we hold on this course is IELTS 5.5, and departments asking more than that usually expect a stronger academic record too. Tuition ranges from £18.500 to £39.000 a year depending on the department, which is a real difference over the length of the course.

The fastest way to narrow this down is to send us your grades and English score. We will come back with a shortlist rather than a brochure.

Careers opportunities

A portfolio and an internship decide entry, and the graduate market is small relative to the number of courses. Technical skill in pattern cutting and garment construction is what separates employable designers from illustrators.

Roles graduates go into

  • Fashion designer
  • Assistant designer
  • Pattern cutter or garment technologist
  • Print or textile designer
  • Product developer
  • Stylist or creative assistant

Where they work

  • Fashion brands and retailers
  • Design studios and suppliers
  • Manufacturers and sourcing offices
  • Costume and theatrical wardrobe
  • Freelance and own label
After the course

No register. Internships, a graduate show and technical competence are what the industry hires on.
