Little PROJECT
O Design de Moda da Universidade da Beira Interior apresenta uma abordagem multidisciplinar e uma formação sólida em desenho, humanidades e cultura do design e da arte - para potenciar o pensamento e o olhar. A formação focada no projeto de moda encoraja a experimentação de materiais em oficinas e laboratórios. A preocupação com a análise do mercado viabiliza o projeto. O estudante tem, assim, o aliciante desafio de gerir a sua criatividade e inovação entre os limites da tecnologia e do mercado. O Departamento de Ciência e Tecnologia Têxteis (DCTT) da UBI assegura a Licenciatura, o Mestrado e o Doutoramento em Design de Moda, este em associação com a UM, e o Mestrado em Branding e Design de Moda em associação com o IADE-U.
Os estudantes usufruem de uma intensa ligação do DCTT/UBI ao meio empresarial da ITV.
