MA Fashion and Lifestyle Promotion

 

MA Fashion and Lifestyle Promotion at UCLan offers students the combination of opportunities for in-depth study in a specific area of fashion and lifestyle promotion, and review from a diverse peer group, to help them position their work in a variety of creative fashion and related industries.

 

Students are encouraged to extend their projects beyond the accepted norms of conventional fashion and lifestyle promotion.

 

Fashion and Lifestyle Promotion at UCLan is taught by a team of full-time and associate lecturers, who have vast experience of the industry. The course is also supported by experienced technical staff, whose skills cover a range of relevant practices.  Students develop their proposals with the opportunity of using resources from other areas within the Department of Art and Fashion: Fine Art, Sculpture, Print, Photography, Video, and Performing Arts.

 

The course is available both full-time and part-time. Full-time is delivered over a three-semester block; part-time is delivered over a five-semester block. Four of the modules allow students to experience other Art and Design related practice which will help them develop their personal proposals.

 

Teaching involves a combination of lectures, seminars, tutorials, presentations and integration of consultancy with industry.  All students are allocated an individual supervisor according to their studio interest.

 

Professional Issues in Art and Design allows students to contextualize their work within a current framework, whilst developing an ability to articulate in-depth a point of view.

 

Research Methods and Established Practice introduces students to a range of analytical research tools, which will form the basis for all in-depth projects on the course.

 

Students can opt for a separate dissertation together with a separately identified major project or combine their practical conclusions with a major body of market research to underpin their area of work.
