Digital Fashion (with Integrated International Pre-Masters) MA (Hons)

**Our MA Digital Fashion with Integrated International Pre-Masters is a year-long preparatory course of study to ready you for your Master’s in the UK, developing your English speaking and writing together with your specialist skills, research acumen and confidence in working autonomously.**<br/><br/>Our groundbreaking MA Digital Fashion degree course at UCA Epsom catapults creative thinkers, designers, and entrepreneurs to the forefront of fashion’s intersection with emerging technologies, giving you the skills, understanding, and confidence to dress the future. <br/><br/>Taught by a team of industry pioneers and researchers, this course was the first of its kind when launched by UCA. Its unique position continues today with a cutting-edge interdisciplinary programme that spans the fields of fashion and gaming.<br/><br/>As fashion houses including Louis Vuitton, Moschino and Gucci style game characters and launch NFT collections, as AI sweeps the creative landscape and blurs lines between physical and digital, as new government legislation demands digital garment provenance for sustainability, and as fashion brands increasingly require 3D skills from their fashion designers, this course uniquely prepares creatives for both today and the future of manufacturing and self-expression. <br/><br/>Leveraging generative AI alongside traditional methods, you’ll create 3D garments in advanced contexts primed for a competitive market. You’ll enter a vibrant boundary-breaking environment where you and your peers dream up XR catwalk shows, user-customised sustainable fashion brands, genre-bending game skin launches, new responsive costume experiences in virtual concerts and cinema, or virtual influencers ready to go viral. Equipped with a strong core knowledge of fashion garment construction, the software behind emergent technologies such as Clo3D, Substance, and Unreal Engine, and an advanced critical understanding of the complex field, youll emerge with the rare combination of skills to succeed in this high-demand market sector. <br/><br/>Our award-winning students further benefit from excellent industry connections and unique opportunities. Previous students have worked on live projects with brands including Farfetch, Epic Games, and The Fabricant, and have showcased their work across digital fashion week events of London, New York, Dubai, and the Metaverse. And with a small course cohort, your unique strengths and interests are heard and fostered. <br/><br/>Owing to the interdisciplinary nature of digital fashion, this course is open to a range of backgrounds including fashion, textiles, fashion business, games, animation, film, and graphic design – though if you come from a experience beyond fashion or 3D, you should expect to undertake intensive learning that will bring you up to speed. <br/><br/>Learn more about studies on this course by following our Instagram @UCADigitalFashion
