About the field of study

Textiles and Fashion Industry (English) is a field of study for those who want to learn about the interdisciplinary textile and fashion industries of the 21st century. The curriculum provides students with knowledge and skills in the field of innovative and interdisciplinary creation of new solutions needed by the modern textile and clothing industry. It is estimated that by 2035 there will be almost 40% growth in the number of companies operating in this sector, so graduates in this field are and will be even more urgently sought after in the labor market. During their studies, students acquire skills in the use of biotechnology, electrical engineering and nanotechnology for the production of new textile materials, 3D products, smart textiles and textile biomaterials. These solutions are applicable not only in the production of clothing, but also medical materials, personal protection, composites, geo- and agro-textiles.  

The study program can be found here.


Specializations: 

  • design and technology of clothing in the fashion industry and for technical purposes, 
  • design and technology of technical textiles and for the fashion industry, 
  • designing chemical processes in the textile and fashion industries. 

Graduate opinions

After graduating from the Faculty of Materials Technologies and Textile Design, I started working at the Central Institute for Labor Protection. I implement activities whose main task is to improve the conditions and safety of people in the working environment, through the use of personal protective equipment such as safety harnesses or textile shock absorbers.
