Specialise in Fashion Design for your Postgraduate Diploma in Design at Massey

The Postgraduate Diploma in Design is an opportunity for you to upskill in creative practice, modern fashion design technology and theory.

 

Extend your design speciality or explore new horizons.

Massey's fashion design qualification has been the starting point for many successful fashion designers who now own or work in multi-million dollar fashion businesses. They include Kate Sylvester, Kathryn Wilson, Rebecca Taylor, and Sean Kelly (Project Runway NY winner, 2014).

Studying design with an emphasis on fashion prepares you for a broad range of opportunities and roles in the creation and sale of apparel, or other design-related careers, locally and internationally.

This qualification will give you an introduction to postgraduate research processes and contemporary design theory. You’ll push the boundaries of your design practice with a research-led independent project. You’ll also have elective courses and courses focused on creative entrepreneurship, exhibition or writing in the creative arts.

If you don’t have an honours degree this qualification can allow you to progress to postgraduate design study.

 

Specialise in Fashion Design for your Graduate Diploma in Design at Massey
