There is emphasis on the development of the individual and the way the individual operates both as part of a creative team and across the domain of entrepreneurship. Students are supported on their individual journey through the course and into the world of business through assignments, internships, and “Mentoring” round tables involving professionals from across the innovation landscape.

 

The multi disciplinary profile of students on the course will reinforce the real world dimension with students from fashion backgrounds working alongside others from outside the traditional boundaries of fashion to explore innovations in order to create, deliver and sustain economic and market growth for the fashion industries.

Whether or not students start a business, the entrepreneurial perspective is a trait most employers find attractive in new hires. “Entrepreneurship” is a term that describes the method of introducing a new idea, process or product into a pre-existing company by organizing colleagues to create, adopt, sell and implement innovative concepts into the existing business.  It is acting like an entrepreneur within a corporation or organization. Companies and organizations benefit when employees bring innovation and creativity to the workplace. Whether you are starting your own business or working within a company structure.
