Bachelor of Arts (Honours) in Textiles Design

On this course, you’ll learn practical and professional skills that equip you to work as part of a team, or to set up your own business in textiles. You’ll study textiles in its widest sense and learn many skills, from print, stitch embellishment to dyeing and mixed media construction (basics of knit and weave). You’ll have the opportunity to focus on a variety of specialist areas, including textiles for fashion, textiles for interiors and textiles as design and crafts materials. Traditional skills are taught together with expertise in modern design development, production, and contemporary invention. Whether you go on to work for a retail brand, or an international design house, we'll prepare you for the challenges that the creative textile industry holds. We formed an AUB textiles agency to promote student work at Premier Vision Paris and London Print Textile Trade Fairs, and students have engaged with industry through placements and live briefs – experiencing how the business buys and sells textiles, as well as makes and uses them.
