If you are a Ghanaian SHS leaver interested in the fashion industry, this programme gives you a broad foundation for a range of careers.
What a fashion and modelling degree covers
Programmes of this kind usually cover the technical and creative skills behind fashion design. You learn about textiles, pattern making, garment construction, and fashion illustration, as well as how to use industry software for design. Alongside these are practical modules in modelling and presentation, such as runway technique, posing for photo shoots, and building a personal brand. Many courses also include fashion marketing, retailing, and merchandising so that you understand how clothes move from sketch to shop.
Career paths for fashion and modelling graduates
Most graduates go into the fashion industry, but the exact jobs vary widely. Some work as fashion designers for clothing manufacturers or start their own labels. Others become fashion stylists, working with individuals, magazines, or film and television productions. You could also enter fashion buying and merchandising, where you decide which products a store sells, or work as a model for runways and advertising. A degree also helps if you want to become a fashion journalist, educator, or entrepreneur.
How competitive is entry?
