Digital Fashion Innovation
Dept. of Fashion Industry
Incheon National University
Vision / Purpose
The Digital Fashion Innovation (DFI) project aims to reorganize the educational process and upgrade the system of the department of fashion industry. This effort is geared towards resolving the discrepancies between the rapidly changing fashion industry environment and the educational approach. Additionally, the project seeks to address the demand for talents with ICT convergence skills within the domestic and global fashion industry.
Areas of Digital Fashion Innovation
To successfully execute the digital fashion innovation project, we implement curricular and extracurricular programs in four specific areas. These areas are determined by the diverse nature of the fashion industry and involve applying digital technologies to design, construction, business, and technology realms. Addressing the industry's strong demand for digital fashion expertise, the Department of Fashion Industry at Incheon National University has taken the initiative to introduce educational programs in this field. The revamped curriculum is anticipated to invigorate the development of individuals who will take the lead in the digital fashion sector.
