Programme profile
The international clothing and textiles market is, without a doubt, a very dynamic one. To be successful in this industry you need to be able to draw not only on your technical knowledge of textiles, but also increasingly on a sound understanding of business principles. 150 Years ago, textile production was centred in Enschede and the surrounding area and therefore textiles are essential for the history of the city. This programme, unique in the netherlands, is based in Enschede.The programme has been developed and is taught by a team of lecturers, many of whom have worked in the textiles sector, and use real-life business case histories to challenge and inspire the students.
Programme content
In the first two years of the course students acquire the necessary fundamental knowledge in the field of Retail, Marketing and Sales. They also take modules in Product Construction, Textile Technology, Finishing and Quality Control to gain the required knowledge in this area.
After the second year students can choose one of three specialisations:
Product Management - Fashion, with a focus on purchasing, product quality, textile technology and clothing manufacture/garment technology
Product Management - Textiles, this specialisation also pays significant attention to the other important textile sectors, namely interior design and technical textiles.
Marketing & Sales, highlighting business economics, marketing, merchandising and e-commerce.
In the third year students do a six-month-internship at a relevant company after which they continue to gain more in-depth knowledge.
Finally, at the beginning of the fourth year there is a minor/exchange period during which the students can further specialise, for instance by spending time at a foreign partner institute. The final half-year of the programme is spent working within a company, mostly in groups of two and largely independently, on a research project for the dissertation.
