Fun, fast-paced, challenging. That's the fashion industry today. Whether it's behind the scenes or on the runway, fashion is a vibrant, exciting business. The Fashion Program at Marist College will help you put your finger on the pulse of the industry, and gain the skills, knowledge, and experience you need to be a success. The faculty in the program foster a nurturing atmosphere where each student receives individual attention and encouragement.
The four-year curriculum encompasses a broad-based education containing a strong liberal arts core while also offering career-oriented courses specializing in design and merchandising.
In their sophomore year, students embark on a more detailed and focused study of the industry.
Design students pursue classic studio courses as well as elective courses such as Knitwear Design.
Juniors may enhance their classroom experience by gaining practical internship experience experience at a prominent manufacturer, retailer, buying office, publication, or other support company. Junior students may also opt to participate in the Marist International Programs (MIP) by spending a semester in Paris, London or Florence.
The senior year focuses on more intensive courses in the student's concentration. Senior design students create a collection of garments, while merchandising students develop a comprehensive business plan for a fashion company. Preparations are also intensive at this time for the annual Silver Needle Fashion Show, which is designed and produced as a collaborative effort between faculty & students.
