Teaching Methods
In the ever-evolving field of interior design education, students participate in various instructional strategies designed to give them a thorough grasp of the subject, including using state-of-the-art design technologies. With a combination of traditional lectures, in-depth studio sessions, and practical workshops, students get the information and abilities needed to handle interior design challenges. One of the central tenets of interior design education is studio-based learning, which encourages students to use the newest digital tools and technology to realize their ideas while working together on design projects. While field visits offer invaluable insights into industrial processes and technology implementation in real-world contexts, workshops provide hands-on training in design software and digital rendering techniques. Learning interior design and its intricacies can be a hurdle, yet our individualized education allows students to dive deep into the discipline and succeed.
Students are also exposed to the cutting edge of design innovation through guest lectures and industry partnerships, which guarantees they stay up to date on new developments in technology and business trends. By adopting these varied pedagogical approaches, students become adept in design technology and foster a comprehensive understanding of interior design, equipping them for success in a rapidly changing field.
Learning Outcomes
Upon completion of Level 4, students will culminate the entire One Year Vocational Program, emerging with advanced skills and expertise in fashion design, ready to embark on their professional careers or further academic pursuits. Through their final design project, they thoroughly understand the fashion design process, from concept generation to collection reality. Through the application of their expertise in pattern cutting and fabric analysis, students create outfits on their own that demonstrate both creativity and technical mastery. In addition, students become proficient in digital illustration, creating visually appealing and dynamic digital images for their portfolios in fashion design. Students learn about fabric qualities, sustainable materials, and environmental factors in the fashion industry by investigating fabrics and advanced technology.
