Emphasis Requirement

Why select the Fashion Communications emphasis? Step into the world of fashion communications, where you will craft stories that shape brands and captivate audiences with every campaign, post, and press release. Fashion communications transports you into the world of PR, trend forecasting, and corporate messaging to craft the brand voice and elevate its public image. In a communications role, you will blend creativity and strategy to turn style into a powerful narrative that defines how the world sees - and feels - fashion. Why select the Fashion Sustainable Systems emphasis? The fashion industry is at a critical crossroads, balancing creativity with the urgent need for environmental and social responsibility. This track explores how designers and innovators can address the most pressing challenges in the industry, from pollution and material waste to global social justice concerns. Students will investigate the systems and inefficiencies that drive these issues and develop forward-thinking solutions that promote sustainability, equity, and positive change across the fashion ecosystem. Why select the Fashion History and Museum Practice emphasis? Fashion history inspires and provides momentum for innovative/creative design and thought. Students in this area will dive deeper into the history of aesthetic movements, inspiration, and methods of the artists and designers that influence fashion and related industries. Students also have the opportunity to learn about specialized practices used across museums and fashion archives. This track prepares students for a master degree program, internships, and emerging career positions in cultural institutions. Why select the Minor, Certificate, or Concurrent Degree emphasis? Students seeking to partner knowledge of Fashion with another existing subject area or field of study may select this option. Students will integrate their learning from both Fashion and their other area or field into a one semester culminating Capstone experience. Additional credits in the same subject area or field of the Minor or Certificate may be required to reach the 24 total required; consult with a Fashion advisor.
