Develop a unique skill set

Individuals who have previously earned a bachelor degree may enroll in a graduate microcertificate program. These microcertificates focus on developing a unique skill set through three courses.

The Art of Bespoke Tailoring

The Art of Bespoke Tailoring microcertificate trains individuals in the high standard of custom hand making garments for a unique, one of a kind fit. Born in the 17th Century, Savile Row in London, Bespoke Tailoring refers to hand stitched garments for an individual consumer where the trained artisan produces high quality, durable garments with unique pattern, fit, style, and embellishment details. Bespoke Tailoring represents long lasting investment in fashion, in contrast to the modern fast-fashion manufacturing.

CLO 3D Fashion Design

A certificate program in CLO3D fashion design software teaches students how to design clothing digitally in the same way many top brands and studios now work.
