Our Bachelor of Arts <strong>course</strong> at ECU has been restructured into<br />
one of the most progressive and flexible degrees of its kind in<br />
Australia. The <strong>course</strong> structure enables you to combine Arts<br />
“It’s so much more than fashion; it’s<br />
everything that supports the industry too.”<br />
I applied for Contemporary Fashion via the Portfolio<br />
pathway. It allowed me to present myself through my work,<br />
rather than just an academic score. The <strong>course</strong> provides<br />
an opportunity to develop skills in photomedia, life drawing<br />
and painting, as well as the practices I need for the fashion<br />
industry. I find these skills give me confidence in myself and<br />
my ability to become a well-rounded designer.<br />
subjects with a major from a range of other disciplines, providing<br />
you with a unique opportunity to design a cross-disciplinary<br />
<strong>course</strong> according to your personal interests.<br />
GrAduAte employAbility<br />
Our <strong>course</strong> structures are designed to promote multi-skilling<br />
of students, which combined with our focus on community<br />
projects and industry placements, serves to increase employment<br />
prospects in an increasingly competitive market. Our students<br />
have been highly successful, both nationally and <strong>international</strong>ly,<br />
in gaining recognition through awards, competitions and<br />
employment in rapidly growing creative industries.<br />
