The main emphasis on sustainability is also an important area of research throughout the Swedish School of Textiles.

Clothes and body-related artefacts can be active, responsive, protective, or supportive in human actions and activities. In this way, clothes can play a central role in various types of body-based activities, human performances, and interactions with the environment. Specialising in Performance Wear at the Swedish School of Textiles involves exploring and developing apparel that can perform – act and interact – in relation to various human activities and performances in outdoor, sports, work, or artistic contexts, considering a wide range of perspectives, including environmental, ethical, technical, and cultural factors.

This programme will give you an overview of the fundamentals of textiles and fashion to build upon your existing degree in topics like business administration, industrial economy, textile engineering, textile design, and fashion design. This will provide interdisciplinary and multicultural perspectives on the challenges related to working towards sustainable textiles and fashion. The main emphasis on sustainability is also an important area of research throughout the Swedish School of Textiles.

The transition to a circular textile industry calls for students who have new ways of thinking about innovation and product development. This educational programme equips you with the tools to analyse future conditions and to transform contemporary products and processes for future needs in a global perspective. You acquire a profound textile technological understanding and get the chance to explore its potential in transdisciplinary contexts, with a specific emphasis on advancing textile innovation.

Specialising in Textile Interaction Design involves exploring and developing textiles that interact with and adapt to their surroundings as well as to bodies, actions, humans, and other species. This specialisation delves into questions and issues related to textile interaction from a wide range of perspectives, including environmental, ethical, technical, and cultural considerations.

This programme will provide academic tools to understand the symbolic nature of fashion and textiles as multidisciplinary and multifaceted phenomena, with a special focus on sustainability. Fashion is one of the most complex and fascinating areas of both research and social life, which encompasses trends and the fashion cycle, the fashion system, as well as perspectives on branding, consumer behaviour and consumption. These issues increasingly require considering the economic, social, and environmental impacts of the sector globally, which are also important areas of research throughout the Swedish School of Textiles.

Fashion design is about reflecting how people live, act, and behave. By designing the functions and expressions of clothing and other products and artefacts related to the body, fashion designers can explore, develop, and propose new possibilities. This can range from diversification and freedom of expression from a social and cultural sustainability perspective to the development of clothing that enables, contributes to, and shapes different human activities in, for example, sports, outdoors, or work.

Het uitgangspunt van dit programma zijn textielvezels: waaruit bestaan ze? Welke betekenis hebben ze en wat kan er mee gedaan worden? Dit educatieve programma sluit op elkaar aan en is gespecialiseerd in verschillende elementen die zowel theoretische als praktische kennis ontwikkelen.

Design, textile materials, and challenging existing textile techniques are in focus in the Bachelor’s programme in Textile Design. With knowledge in textile construction techniques and the latest research in materials and fibres, you can experiment with how these materials could be designed and used in a number of projects. Also, sustainability is a foundational aspect for students in every design project.
