Master in Fashion Administration and Management

The internationalisation of Fashion is generating important changes in Business Management. For this reason a large group of employers have suggested to the Fashion Design School and Felicidad Duce Fashion, given their professional experience, to create a program that includes both creative and administrative training, for companies of the textile and fashion industry.

This Master’s Degree in Fashion Administration and Management is supported by the our college’s teaching experience and by the International level of the Fine Arts and Economic and Business Studies faculties of Barcelona University, with whom we have worked closely on the syllabus design, guaranteeing in this way both a structured modern updated teaching programme and a worldwide recognised degree.

It is also worth mentioning the importance of the textile industry, whose cooperation has made the development of a complete and a logical programme possible. Furthermore, it will provide students with deep and wide knowledge in the subject.
