Housed within the Faculty of Fashion Studies (FFS), the Department of Fashion Studies is a part of a rich, interdisciplinary community at BUFT. This department connects faculty and students across its programs to provide innovative course offerings, technical resources, research opportunities, creative projects, and community collaborations. The Department of Fashion Studies has a vision of nurturing students to become leading fashion makers, thinkers and doers equipped to systemically transform the Bangladeshi and global fashion system, as well as respond to and instigate new ideas in the ever-evolving fashion landscape.
It aims to transform the fashion industry by centering modern ideas, inclusive, decolonized and sustainable approaches to fashion through our teaching, research and creative activities as well as, our industry and community partnerships. The transformation is fueled by changes in industry, education, and culture. We value new creative design processes, techniques and methods that recognize and honor tradition while critically challenging convention and social norms, with a global perspective.
