This two-year programme offers a wide range of different disciplines related to Fashion Studies, including art history, marketing, literature, cultural studies, cinema studies,
sociology, dress history and economic history. The different courses are held by both faculty at the Centre for Fashion Studies and visiting professors. The programme is designed to advance knowledge and critical approaches to fashion as an aesthetic, cultural, economic and social phenomena and to enhance students’ capacity for academic inquiry while problematising and critically reflecting on representations
and meanings of fashion, as well as on fashion studies as an academic discipline.
The programme consists of two one-year courses of 60 credits each and features intensive lectures, workshops, seminars, museum visits, individual supervision of thesis work and work-in-progress seminars. The programme is supported by the resources of museums and libraries and may lead to creative, administrative and/or policy-making careers in fashion journalism, in fashion industry, in film and television, in publishing, in advertisement and in archives.
Contents
This preliminary research programme addresses questions concerning fashion as a discourse and the construction of identity with regard to fashion as an industry. The programme also investigates fashion as an aesthetic and material form, including representations of fashion in the visual arts, photography, theatre, film,
advertising and marketing. The programme concludes with an independent thesis of 15 ECTS, which should evidence high scholarly quality and prepare students for research.
