You will be introduced to the fundamental principles of textile fibres and fabrics through the lens of sustainable and responsible practice across the life cycle. You will develop a broad knowledge of the language, properties, performance and manufacturing processes associated with a range of materials. You will also examine the connection between a material's expression and the user experience.
