BA Contemporary Fashion Design and Digital Marketing
About this course
Contemporary fashion design and digital marketing is a degree that brings together the creative and commercial dimensions of two rapidly evolving fields. Fashion design is concerned with the conception, development and realisation of clothing and accessories, combining aesthetic vision with technical skills in pattern cutting, garment construction and material understanding. Digital marketing, meanwhile, addresses how brands and products are promoted and sold in an increasingly online world, drawing on data analytics, social media, content strategy and consumer behaviour. The combination prepares you for the intersection of creativity and commerce that defines the modern fashion industry. At Liverpool Hope University, this three-year programme develops your skills across both disciplines. You will explore the creative and technical dimensions of fashion design alongside a rigorous grounding in digital marketing theory and practice, learning how to develop collections and how to bring them to market effectively in a digital-first environment. A sandwich placement year gives you substantial professional experience, and a year abroad adds an international perspective on fashion and marketing. Work placement opportunities are integrated throughout the programme, connecting your academic learning to the professional contexts in which fashion is designed and sold. Graduates from this combined programme are well placed for careers in the fashion industry, including roles in fashion design, creative direction, brand management, digital marketing, e-commerce, buying and merchandising, and fashion communications. The dual focus on design and marketing makes you particularly valuable in roles that bridge creative and commercial functions within fashion brands and retailers. Some graduates move into broader creative industries where the combination of design sensibility and digital marketing knowledge is equally relevant. Postgraduate study in fashion, marketing or creative enterprise is a natural next step for those who want to deepen their specialism.
