  • The Master of Professional Studies degree is awarded for completion of 30 credits. Transfer credits are not accepted. Students must maintain a 3.0 cumulative grade point average and fulfill all requirements in a timely manner.

    This 12-month curriculum consists of fall, spring, and summer semesters. The program begins with a one-week orientation seminar that provides a deep dive into the fashion industry. All Fashion Management students, on-site and online, are invited to participate together during this week. For online students unable to come to campus, there is a fully online version of the orientation seminar.

    Each semester consists of five-week intensive course modules as well as one semester-long course. On-campus and online students follow the same sequence of courses. A weekly schedule of real-time online class sessions is set for times that work best for each course section and students around the globe, generally on weekends.

    For a complete listing of courses and course descriptions, visit the university course catalog.
