As the second in a two-part course sequence of senior major project study, students will draw upon experience gained at earlier stages of the program. This is a self-initiated thesis project[s] that encompasses theoretical and practical design practice. It allows the student to research and develop an area of interest, providing the opportunity to demonstrate ideas and abilities in a study, which is negotiated and progressed, in breadth and depth. It also requires the student to plan and develop a proposal/brief, based upon the synthesis of exploration, ideation, and research. Students are required to manage and communicate, their processes, while developing an individually negotiated approach to a design question or issue, which will be documented through research/reflective journals and technical notebooks were applicable.

This MATERIALITY and ALL GENDER Collection section enables students the creative freedom to pursue Collection and/or Materiality approaches, both will be taught and equally available for exploration and potential combination. Students who take an All Gender Collection approach will challenge new possibilities for what a fashion design, visual identity, gender construction and reimagine what it means to design a fashion collection in relation to critical inquiries into gender. Students who take a Materiality approach will focus on the application of material and textile innovation to fashion design in relation to the body and beyond. Through a Materiality approach, students will generate new possibilities for fashion through the integration of new technologies and sustainable approaches with foundational methods of dyeing, knit, print and weave while challenging students to explore new fabrication techniques. Deep exploration in terms of research towards applied materiality outcomes including both garments/wearables and non-garment/non-wearable outcomes are encouraged.

This SYSTEM & COLLECTION section enables students to pursue collection and/or systems approach to fashion design, both will be taught and equally available for exploration and potential combination. Students who take a Collection approach will challenge new possibilities for what a fashion design, visual identity and reimagine what it means to design a fashion collection. Students who take a Systems approach will critically engage how fashion relates to contemporary issues facing society. In all cases, students have the ability to pursue a diverse range of systems design and critical thinking approaches in order to develop and actually construct new types of fashion systems and models that can make a positive impact on our world. Students will investigate fashion design as part of a system of interrelated parts which may include but is not limited to: raw materials, sourcing, technology, labor, production practices and methods, design, garment development and making, media/communication, public distribution, wearers/users, business aspects of fashion, garment/product care, end of life of garment/product, waste management, recycling.
