Bachelor of Arts (Honours) - Business Management and Contemporary Fashion Design (CF05)

The world of Business Management is fast-moving and dynamic: Business organizations are facing unprecedented change and complex challenges both within the UK and globally. This demands that students who enter the business sector understand the dynamics of the business environment and how organizations operate in increasingly uncertain situations. The Business Management degree at Liverpool Hope University examines small to medium-sized enterprises to global multi-national companies – public, private, not-for-profit with a focus on business principles, organizational dynamics and management processes.

This in-depth degree gives students the opportunity to understand how businesses operate and the ethical and social impact they have on communities. An experienced, student-focused team will develop their understanding of this business context and develop the critical business skills and transferable skills that future employers will demand.

Contemporary Fashion is a dynamic practice-based course that explores a breadth of current themes and issues from inclusivity to adaptable fashion. Centered around the exciting possibilities of adorning the body and exploring materials, students will learn about the fundamentals of designing, making and understanding the role that fashion plays in wider society. The course will encourage individuality, collaborative working and support diverse career trajectories.

Students will be taught by established practitioners and have access to a vast range of equipment, workshops and studios. They will be immersed in a professional environment that enables rich interdisciplinary approaches at undergraduate level. This includes working with live briefs and competitions, as well as engaging with established national and international contacts.

As a Combined Honours Degree, this program offers an exciting opportunity to combine students' fashion practice with other subjects, which will influence their individual approach to fashion and can be tailored to individual interests.
