The textile industry is a huge global fashion industry that surrounds us all the time: floors, walls, furniture, clothes, shoes, haberdashery, gift packaging, postcards, and even car interiors. This is one of the largest fields for the implementation of design skills in the artistic-coloristic and artistic-technological design of material objects. Thanks to the many types of materials applied to different surfaces and placed in many contexts, textiles take their place in fashion, design, interior decoration, science, and even from the point of view of human health, they affect their psycho-emotional well-being.

This educational program is interesting for those who like to work with color, patterns, texture, fabrics, knitwear, and other textile materials; create decorative patterns and new surface designs; engage in the decoration of textile materials and products for the fashion industry and interior space.

Students will have the opportunity to master the main technologies of the textile industry (spinning, weaving, knitting, production of non-woven materials and composite structures), as well as the main technologies of their equipment and decoration, in particular the technology of embroidery and painting, dyeing and printing, in particular silk-screen printing and digital printing. One’s own research activities in the framework of practical and laboratory work will help to understand the contexts in which textiles can be used. The very process of making – exploring materials, methods, colour, image, and touch – will drive innovation beyond expectations.

The program provides for the acquisition of practical, professional, and entrepreneurial skills, which will give you the opportunity to work in a team or even open your own business in design of textile materials and products. Students will have the opportunity to study textiles in the broadest sense of the word and gain a wide range of competencies from the ability to create the latest textile materials with given functional properties to the implementation of effective technological processes; focus on various specialized areas of fashion and interior textile technologies including fashion textiles, interior textiles, design textiles, and medical and technical textiles.
