Student Work
As a student in our MS in Fashion Design Technology program, you’ll be immersed in a dynamic, studio-driven environment that blends innovation, experimentation, and collaboration. From your first day, you’ll work with faculty, industry professionals, and cross-disciplinary peers to develop future-focused fashion solutions. You’ll explore the creative potential of virtual design, artificial intelligence, and sustainable materials—all while prototyping in advanced labs that bridge the physical and digital worlds. Whether you're reimagining textiles, testing concepts in AR/VR, or presenting work to brand partners, your experience will be hands-on, tech-savvy, and designed to launch or elevate a next-generation fashion career. And throughout it all, you'll enjoy the natural beauty and historic charm of our East Falls campus, nestled along the Schuylkill River and just minutes from the vibrant culture of Center City Philadelphia.
