The course is project-oriented, with each semester consisting of an extensive design project and accompanying modules on pattern construction, fashion drawing, presentation techniques, design techniques, costume studies, fashion theory, and entrepreneurship.

A six-month specialist internship is integrated into the Master's course of study.
