About the course

Textile Design harnesses the creative potential of fibres, yarns, and processes to produce materials with unique qualities, influencing everyday life while promoting sustainable choices to minimise environmental and social impacts. This field fosters artistic expression to raise awareness and drive change. Our course develops innovative, industry-ready designers skilled in disciplines such as Print, Weave, Knit, Embroidery, and Material Innovation, encouraging cross-disciplinary approaches that blend digital technologies with traditional crafts.Through hands-on experimentation in advanced workshops, students build expertise, problem-solving abilities, and personal design expression in Birmingham's dynamic, multicultural environment. Career-oriented teaching, live briefs, and work placements help identify professional paths, culminating in a portfolio focused on sustainable practices. In the final year, students pursue individual interests, supported by a Next Step module for career transition. An optional professional placement year offers real-world experience, with university support for placements and partial fees applicable.
