Fashion Studies (B.A.)
The Fashion Studies degree offers breadth rather than depth of study in fashion. This degree plan will combine both fashion design and fashion management courses. The purpose is to accommodate students who wish to major in fashion but cannot commit to the in-depth four-year programs for either the BA in Fashion Management or the BFA, Major in Fashion Design. Upon completion of this degree, students will be eligible for many, but not all, entry-level positions within the fashion industry.
