MSc Sustainable Fashion Business Professional Practice

UK

What will I learn?

The fashion industry faces many challenges, including but not limited to, the climate crisis, ever-increasing social inequality, and the continuing impact of the global pandemic. The creation and management of fashion businesses that operate in a more sustainable and responsible way - while ensuring a profitable future - has become a very complex situation.

This course is a direct response to the challenges faced by the fashion industry and directly reflects a growing industry priority for circularity and end-of-life strategies across fashion businesses and fashion supply chains.

The primary aim of this course is to bring critical awareness, strategic thinking, sustainability, and innovation to the forefront, by providing an analytical and integrative understanding of sustainable fashion business practices.

Using the UN Sustainable Development Goals as a catalyst, you'll develop the skills required to research, debate, and critically evaluate issues relating to ethics and sustainability in the fashion industry, while engaging critically with the contemporary theoretical underpinnings of business and management.

This course will equip you with real-world skills and the essential toolkit to create or develop responsible business strategies; strategies that keep people and planet at the heart of decision-making.

Two-year masters

In addition to the standard one-year MSc Sustainable Fashion Business, an optional two-year route is offered with the addition of a trimester of Professional Practice leading to the MSc Sustainable Fashion Business with Professional Practice.
