Fashion is one of the disciplines of design that has influenced mankind physically and socially over the ages in the framework of changing cultural patterns and social structure. Continually renewing itself, fashion expresses rapidly changing environmental conditions and societal tastes while at the same time acting as an indicator of the historical development of material culture and changing life styles in their economic and industrial dimensions. By means of costume, directors of fashion dominate and direct modes of social behavior and aesthetic and consumer values. Within this context, the BA program in Fashion Design aims to educate the professionals required by the textile and fashion industries in Turkey in accordance with international standards.
The Fashion Design Undergraduate Program has been prepared for individuals who want to find a place in the magical world of fashion and are ready to explore their capabilities in the different facets of their dreams.
