FIELD INTEGRATED PROJECTS
Integrated projects represent a unique opportunity for students to integrate study projects and real case studies into the teaching activity, carried out in partnership with important fashion, design and luxury companies that provide a project brief on a shared theme between the company management and the professors of Milano Fashion Institute.
The integrated projects are divided into a full-time training module, coordinated by a multidisciplinary team of teachers, in which, starting from the brief developed with the company, one works as a team to create a proposal aimed at responding to the objectives defined by the brief itself. The general objective is to develop business, product and collection strategies, communication with a high innovation content and adhering to the reality of the company, simulating work processes as close as possible to the reality of professional contexts.
