Given that fashion reaches into every corner of the world and influences almost every industry, you’ll gain a competitive career advantage by being able to function in several modes. Unlike many fashion programs, Humber’s two-year fashion diploma specializes in the business of fashion, not design. Students become savvy in every aspect of the fashion industry—apparel, accessories, cosmetics—from a business, marketing, and event production perspective. You’ll apply what you learn in marketing, store operations, new venture development, and international trade.
At Humber, you will be part of more than fabrics and patterns, you will be part of the transformation of how the exciting fashion industry is run from the latest trends in business and style. You'll learn everything from the general business of fashion to cosmetics, product knowledge, history and trend forecasting, sales and presentation, event planning, retail marketing to international trade and much more.
Through real experience and practical assignments you’ll get a working portfolio to show employers. Business education includes:
