POLIMODA|COURSE|DESCRIPTION

The course is aimed at providing students with a comprehensive knowledge of the fashion system and its mechanisms, as well as of trends, means of communication, company strategies and consumer psychology.

Students will also learn fundamental marketing principles, image development strategies (branding), consumer analysis, purchasing strategies, customer relationship management, advertising strategies and the development of a company communications plan. Disciplines aimed at developing creativity and skills in advertising and visual communications are key elements of this course.

At the end of the three-year programme, students can further continue their studies, specialising in either the fashion field (Graphic Design – Art Director) or the technical/creative field (Web design; Graphics for publishing) with a one-year Masterclass.

Our innovative teaching method strongly encourages an ability to plan, allowing students to develop their own creativity while at the same time putting their ideas into practice.
