Program Overview

The Textiles and Fashion Design program at the University of Wisconsin-Madison combines a strong understanding of materials with techniques rooted in history, science, and contemporary design. Students develop advanced knowledge of materials, processes, and design principles, and have the opportunity to showcase their projects in the fall student showcase and spring fashion show. The program also offers a unique option for students to complete their senior year at the Fashion Institute of Technology (FIT) in New York City, earning both a B.S. degree from UW-Madison and an A.A.S. degree from FIT.
