"The course pushes us to look at sustainable brands and analyse ethical behaviour. For example, in one exam we were asked to consider the sustainable production initiatives of a specific company".
"The first year of the course gives you a broad understanding and foundation of the industry so that you can then decide what you'd like to specialise in".
"I hadn't considered a course in fashion as I assumed all courses required previous experience and qualifications in art. But the BSc in Fashion focuses on the business and technology, and this 'behind-the-scenes' element really interests me."
