Perspectives and Innovations in the Teaching System at the Faculty of Material Technologies and Textile Design, Technical University of Lodz – a Concept of Combining the Education of Artists and Engineers

Journal Title: Fibres and Textiles in Eastern Europe - Year 2017, Vol 25, Issue 6

Abstract

Design methodology makes it possible to plan and organise many different processes to obtain an optimal object. Students taught at the Textile Architecture specialization gain skills in design and technology, and this combination facilitates them to cooperate with industry. Recruitment expectations of companies reveal innovative fields of activity in this area. A new subject – Design Methodology for Corporations becomes a link in the process of teaching which will prepare graduates well for work in the clothing industry. The article shows a path of education of students at the Faculty of Material Technologies and Textile Design extended with the elements of artistic education. It takes up the broad topic of education in clothing design by discussing subsequent stages of education. It discusses a new subject, i.e. Designing for Corporations, which allows for a combination of artistic and technological skills. Finally it indicates potential pathways to multidisciplinary education.
