Bachelor in Textiles Top Up Ba Hons

Tuition fees are 23,887 USD per year.

Gain direct exposure to the professional design landscape by joining this intensive final-year top-up programme, specifically designed to bridge the gap between your existing foundation-level expertise and a career in the textile industry. You will immerse yourself in a fast-paced creative environment where the primary focus is refining your unique design voice through a series of industry-led projects—past collaborations have included work with WGSN, Fred Perry, and Parker Knoll.

This course is ideal for those who have already completed a Higher National Diploma, Foundation Degree, or the first two years of an undergraduate degree and are looking to complete their BA (Hons) in the heart of London. You will benefit from a curriculum that balances experimental, hands-on workshop practice with the professional rigour required to launch a career or pursue further study.

Professional Integration

Beyond the studio, you will be encouraged to engage with the global textile community by entering international competitions, exhibiting your work, and participating in curated visits to key trade shows in London, Paris, and Florence. By the end of the year, you will have curated a professional-standard portfolio and a self-led major project that showcases your readiness to enter the creative workforce.
