Fashion Design A.A.

*This is an overview of the program. The course sequencing is meant to serve as a guideline for your semester planning. Please note that the scheduling of courses, program sequencing and curriculum are subject to change.*

Designed for students who have a special interest in entering the world of Fashion. As in the Fine Arts Program, students will combine classroom study at LCCC with studio experiences at The Baum School of Art in Allentown. While some students may pursue the program of study for personal enrichment rather than transfer, the degree is designed for students preparing to enter a program leading to a baccalaureate degree at a four-year institution.

Because the requirements of four-year institutions vary widely, students should choose an intended transfer college as soon as possible and work with their advisor to follow the program described in that college's catalog. All students will be expected to prepare a portfolio for transfer or employments applications. The portfolio will be the determining factor as to which courses will transfer to another four-year college or university.

Upon successful completion of this program, graduates will be able to:

  • survey painting, sculpture, architecture and other related art forms with consideration of the aesthetic, historical, and technical significance of major artistic achievements.

  • use a variety of media to communicate visual ideas and concepts especially as they relate to the human form.

  • implement design and construction of garments with an understanding of materials, details, fit, and ability to be worn

Transfer information for this program is on file in the Transfer Center. For more information, contact an academic advisor or counselor.

Please Note: This program contains art courses that may require the purchase of additional supplies. Please visit the LCCC and Baum Schoof of Art Supply List page for detailed information.
