MA in Fashion Retail and Luxury Management

This programme is specifically designed for all those individuals who would like to further their retail career within an international environment.

By merging retail and management, the course enables students to engage with more than one discipline and meet the industry expectations of the luxury sector.

Students will work on the different aspects of the marketing management: from the Fashion System analysis to the study of the fashion marketing and communication techniques; from the detailed analysis of the brand management to the knowledge of the distribution scenario. Besides strategic aspects, the course allows developing the concept of fashion conceived as cultural, social and historical system characterized by different trends to be analysed and interpreted.

The course delivery will be reinforced with guest speakers, trade visits and exhibition trips so that learners can develop more holistic understanding of fashion retail and luxury management.

The learning and teaching strategy is underpinned by current research as well as the requirements of professional practice and reflects the learning outcomes of the programme. The learning and teaching strategy relates to, and is tested by the assessment requirements.  It provides the students with a learning environment that will incorporate a variety of teaching and learning methods such as:

• dissemination of information and facilitation of learning via lectures, seminars and internet,
• debate and discussion in seminars / plenary sessions/ on-line discussion boards,
• analysis and synthesis of case studies to expose students to the complexities and intricacies of business related problems,
• directed reading through the use of texts / articles / hand-outs,
• individual and / or group presentations
• development of a research proposal culminating in the completion of a project.

Emphasis is placed on participative and interactive activities designed to encourage original, creative and reflective thought from each student as well as an emphasis on the students’ responsibility for their learning. This creates the need to divide the study sessions into two main categories to match the learning and teaching strategy.
