Textile Design Student Studies in Scotland

Textile Design Junior Brett Udovich spent the Fall 2014 semester studying at Heriot-Watt University in Galashiels, Scotland. Brett was selected to participate in a unique exchange program between PhilaU and Heriot-Watt, where the two universities "exchange" students in the Fall semester of each year. Here are a few images from Brett's time in Scotland.

The Bachelors of Science in Textile Design and Masters of Science in Textile Design programs provide integration and balance between creative design and technology. In the undergraduate program, students explore weaving, knitting and printing, with the opportunity for advanced course work in the areas of their choice. Students in the graduate program are required to specialize in one area (knit, weave or print), but are encouraged to incorporate the other areas of textile design through their foundation courses, elective or design studio work.

Design research is stressed from the beginning of the programs. Being in the a major city is a great resource as is The Design Center at Jefferson with its textile collection from around the world.
