It offers the opportunity to focus on fashion writing for different media and markets. You will explore writing for traditional magazines and newspapers alongside digital publishing, including blogs, websites, e-commerce and social media.

MA Fashion Communication explores the discipline through new, cutting-edge digital platforms and media as well as more traditional modes of communication.

The course helps you to develop the professional skills to join the next generation of fashion theorists, analysts, writers, journalists, image-makers and visual communicators. It also helps you to anticipate and respond to fluid, fluctuating global communication channels.

While much of your time and teaching is concentrated on your pathway study, there are opportunities to work with your colleagues from other pathways and courses. This structure reflects the collaborative approach of the fashion industry.

Across all pathways, the curriculum focuses both on the realities of the modern industry as well as fashion theory, ensuring your work is informed by current knowledge and debates in your specialist area.
