ITCThe Institute of Textiles and Clothing (ITC) has a proud and well-respected history. As the pioneer of fashion and textiles education in Hong Kong, ITC is globally recognised as one of the top research institutes.

Since its inception in 1957, ITC has offered a wide range of academic programmes in fashion and textile design, fashion business and fashion technology at the Bachelor, Master’s, MPhil, PhD and post-doctoral levels.

ITC has a team of excellent members who uphold the highest quality in teaching and research work. Students are taught in an integrated and multi-disciplinary manner, with emphasis on both theory and

practice. ITC nurtures the creativity of students by enriching their knowledge and broadening their mind, so that they eventually become professionals. They will also be mentally well equipped to take on their role as responsible, all-round global citizens. Our students are therefore highly regarded by fashion and textiles professionals in Hong Kong and the Asia Pacific.

P R O G RA M M E A I M & O B J ECT I V E

The general aim of the programme is to train students into competent professionals for the fashion business, including textiles, apparel, retail and design and in other related organisations. These students will play an active role in the development of the fashion and textiles industry both locally and internationally after graduation. In addition to their professional competencies, the programme will also cultivate other essential competencies of the students that meet the demands of today’s society. They will have abilities such as teamwork and leadership, entrepreneurship, and lifelong learning. They will be creative problem solvers with relevant skills, and have the ability to think critically and creatively. The students will gain effective communication and interpersonal skills, and become highly biliterate proficient and trilingual. They will become educated global citizens, demonstrate social and national responsibility, show interest in local and international affairs, and exhibit cultural appreciation and a global outlook.

P R O G RA M M E ST R U CT U R E

All students who are admitted with HKDSE results will start the programme with 3 common semesters, in which they will be provided with a foundation of the various primary activities in the fashion and textiles industry. All students, after the common semesters, will be streamed into one of five specialisms according to their individual preference. For the 2 design specialisms, Design and Knitwear Design & Technology, students have to pass a Design & Drawing Test and/or undergo an interview for admission. A student may elect to take the Design & Drawing Test and/or undergo the interview prior to admission to the Scheme or take the test and undergo the interview at the beginning of the third semester.

In principle, all students are offered a free choice of specialisms. However, in view of operational considerations, a contingency procedure will be followed in the rare event that there is oversubscription of a specialism. Each specialism has a threshold student number determined by the teaching resources of the

department. The contingency procedure will take effect when the threshold is reached.

In the contingency procedure, students are required to declare a list of selected specialisms in their order of preference. Students who have applied to an oversubscribed specialism will be placed on a waiting list in accordance with their academic performance during the past 3 semesters. Students with less satisfactory performance will be given their second preference on their list of selected specialisms. In each subsequent semester after admission to a specialism, compulsory core subjects of each specialism will be offered, and a wide range of elective subjects will also be included to enrich the learning experience of students. Furthermore, students will undertake mandatory language and general education subjects as well as take part in the WIE to fulfil the general university requirements.

Students who are admitted via senior year placement will start their specialism study at the time of admission. These students are expected to complete the programme in 2 years with a maximum registration period of 4 years.
