FASHION DESIGN

Stevenson University’s Bachelor’s of Science Fash-ion Design program, which is housed in the School of De-

sign, was inaugurated in 2011. A minor in fashion design is

also available. Fine and applied arts, business, and general education classes complement a dynamic course of study

in technical fashion design.

Graduates of the program can expect to work in the multifaceted global field of fashion and its related in-

dustries that encompass design, manufacturing, and mar-keting. With a fashion design degree, professional oppor-tunities are available in diverse areas such as technical

fashion design, computer aided pattern design, draping and sample hand development, styling, merchandising, product development, color forecasting, textiles, fashion

illustration, fashion forecasting, fashion photography, im-

age consulting, costume designing, and entrepreneurship.

The fashion business is constantly changing in or-der to meet the needs of customer trends and current technologies. This paves the way for the industry to cre-ate new and dynamic professional career positions and

pathways.
