Prepare to engage with a discipline that bridges art, science, and industry.
This full-time, four-year on-campus degree immerses you in a vibrant studio environment where you will master both traditional techniques like screen printing and knit, alongside cutting-edge technologies such as 3D printing and laser cutting. Through hands-on experimentation and project-based learning, you will develop a deep understanding of colour, structure, and form, culminating in a significant final-year project. You will graduate with a portfolio of work and the creative and technical skills to pursue diverse career paths in fashion, interiors, digital design, and beyond, ready to contribute to Dundee's rich textile heritage and the global design community.
