MA International Fashion Business

Course Overview

The MA in International Fashion Business at the University of East London is a one-year full-time programme. Students can choose between two pathways: Luxury Branding, focused on the management and development of luxury brands, and Marketing Management, which includes strategic marketing, digital marketing, and understanding consumer behaviour in fashion. 

During the course, there are chances to work on real projects, attend guest lectures, and go on trips to major fashion cities like Milan, Paris, and New York City. The core modules that students will study include Fashion Marketing and Public Relations, Luxury Brand Management, and International Fashion Business and Management. Students are typically assessed through essays, research projects, presentations, and a dissertation. 

By the end of the programme, students will have a strong understanding of the fashion supply chain, how consumers behave, and how to manage fashion brands effectively.
