Specialized courses in the fashion management curriculum include twentieth-century fashion history, trend forecasting, retail and wholesale management, brand management, store planning and merchandising global sourcing, and retail finance.
You’ll gain practical skills through applied projects during which you’ll develop processes and products from the idea stage to execution.
