格拉斯哥艺术学院的时装与纺织品医学硕士是一项高级技能研究生课程，旨在满足那些希望扩展，发展和磨练自己的“设计标志”的有动机的时装和纺织毕业生的抱负。该计划吸引并欢迎两种不同“类型”的时装设计专业学生，每种学习方法都具有独特的特点。可以广泛地将其描述为“纺织品（或表面）引导”，其设计方法被认为是“纺织品向外”的。另一个可以广义地描述为“剪影（或形状）引导”，其设计方法被认为是“从剪影向内”的。以纺织品为主导的时装设计师更加关注服装中面料的表面（印刷，刺绣，装饰）或结构（编织，针织），并且在设计时倾向于在二维
The Master of Design in Fashion Design programme is designed to meet the ambitions of motivated fashion graduates who wish to extend, develop and refine their design practice. The programme develops resourceful and independently minded designers who challenge and interrogate the field of fashion in new and innovative ways, taking inventive, rule-breaking approaches to surface and silhouette.The programme encourages students to consider the human form as a limitless opportunity for creative expression and to develop an individual visual language accordingly. Those who focus on a surface approach are guided to create rectilinear textile forms and then work intuitively and sculpturally on the body, exploring the inherent qualities of the fabrics. Students concentrating on silhouette are encouraged to take experimental and imaginative approaches to three-dimensional form, cut, shape and construction methods.Throughout the programme, students embrace a playful, unrestrained dress-up box approach to fashion subverting and disrupting craft and clothing conventions. The programme supports students in moving effortlessly and expertly between 2D and 3D, making spontaneous and reasoned responses, considering the outermost and innermost details, and designing responsibly for optimum social, environmental and cultural impact.
