Here's what York St John University says about its Fashion Marketing course.
On this course we will guide you through the key elements of fashion marketing. You will learn how the fashion industry develops strategies in line with their target market. Explore how consumer behaviour theories are applied within a fashion context. You will come to understand how product, pricing and distribution strategies differ for both mainstream and luxury markets. Alongside this you will study the key principles of contemporary marketing and communications. Through your modules you will gain an understanding of a wide range of theories and concepts across fashion and marketing, including:
Fashion communications, digital marketing, and social media Trend forecasting Brand strategy Buying, retail and supply chain Product development and fashion lifecycle Sustainability and ethics To enhance your learning, you will have the opportunity to learn from industry specialists throughout the course and attend guest lectures and work on live fashion briefs with leading fashion companies to give you the opportunity to develop your experience and knowledge of the industry.
The course offers you a professional development system that runs throughout the duration of your degree. We will give you invaluable, personalised career advice that culminates in the final year module, Fashion Career Planning and Portfolio. You are given the opportunity to identify and develop your career path and build the right profile for yourself through initiatives we have developed. In the past we have delivered career workshops in London with a leading luxury fashion recruitment agency, and a mentorship scheme. The mentors are specialists in their field and have supported our students with their future career goals by helping them to create their own professional identity, and the skills they will need by sharing their own insights on a one-to-one basis.
You will have the opportunity throughout your studies to work with many of our industry partners through our academic’s strong professional links. Your briefs could include developing a new social media strategy for a brand, working with a trend agency developing innovative solutions for their client base, or a new strategy for a global brand.
You will also develop your creative skills by using industry standard software, such as the Adobe creative suite which includes Illustrator, Photoshop and InDesign. In addition, you will have the opportunity to develop your technical skills using Product Lifecycle Management systems (PLM) software, a bonus if you are considering buying and merchandising as a career.
As a Business School we are passionate about social responsibility and sustainability, which is especially important in fashion. These values and this commitment will be embedded throughout this course. You will work on projects that develop innovative, sustainable, and ethical solutions for fashion companies. We are a Principles of Responsible Management Education (PRME) signatory for the United Nations. Our mission is to develop your potential so that you can make a difference in society.
Take the opportunity to earn while you learn on your year in industry. You can gather skills and knowledge from a temporary position in a professional environment, this can then be applied to the work you do in your final year and beyond.
On this course you will have many chances to visit new locations, gather new experiences and take part in opportunities beyond day-to-day study. We regularly review and adapt the delivery and initiatives to reflect changes in the industry and ensure your learning is in line with industry practice.
