Career Discovery Workshop

Fifteen students interested in Textile Design, Fashion Design and Fashion Merchandising joined PhilaU faculty and students for an intensive week-long workshop. This hands-on studio experience provided participants the opportunity to explore a range of activities in each discipline. Here are some images of the week in progress. Check back for images of the final body of work.

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.
