Our degree courses are underwritten by Falmouth University, and created in collaboration with industry to ensure the very latest skills gaps are addressed through academic learning and industry enrichment. We believe that fashion and retail is about creativity, innovation and business acumen and these skills are taught through theoretical and practical education that includes fashion design, merchandising, marketing, and management.
