This two-year pathway is designed for prospective students who are interested in developing their menswear design skills and applying them in an industry setting.
It is designed for individuals who are particularly interested in establishing their own menswear brand but who would like to gain industry experience while doing so. The course includes a year of project-based study and a placement year within the industry.
A minimum of an upper second class honours degree (2:1) or a lower second class honours degree (2:2) and substantial relevant work experience. Applicants are required to submit a portfolio, if this does not contain sufficient menswear content, applicants will then be required to create a virtual portfolio of three design projects that best evidence individual inspiration, and how this is developed through the process of designing. Applicants will also need to identify in writing a specific area of personal interest that they believe will create a positive contribution to the menswear industry and which they envisage studying in depth whilst on the course. Selection for interview is based on both application and portfolio.
If your first language is not English, you should have an IELTS 6.5 with at least 6.5 in writing and no element below 6.0.
Applicants are required to submit one academic reference.
