The Minor in Fashion Business comprises an 18 credit hour course of study, leaving ample room for students to pursue interdisciplinary course options across the college. The curriculum foundation encompasses a basic understanding of fashion as an industry.

• demonstrate an understanding of the professional vocabulary used in the fashion industry;
• analyze product quality, pricing, promotion, target markets, trends, opportunities, challenges, and evaluate their impact in the field;
• understand the cultural significance of fashion; and
• recognize the steps needed to develop fashion ideas into artistic and entrepreneurial endeavors.
