Program description
Students will learn how to create original goods by following the design process from inception to completion through a combination of in-class instruction and creative activities.
The goal of this course is to teach students how to use design software to create 3D models and professional product presentations. Students will collaborate with some of Italy's leading design companies and art directors on cutting-edge research projects throughout the semester.
Students will be able to study about project culture in the Institute, which is an integral part of Milan's design network, as well as in the many spaces and showrooms run by prominent businesses in the nearby neighborhood and at the heart of Milan's design district.
Students will be able to see thousands of shows delivering product presentations over the course of a week during the Milan Furniture Fair and Milan Design Week, two of the world's largest and most imitated design events.

About the university
In 1935, Milanese tailor Giulio Marangoni established Istituto, which by 1942 had evolved into the Scuola Professionale Artistica. While the school's focus was initially on educating pattern makers and seamstresses, it shifted to fashion design, product development, and marketing in the 1970s and 1980s.
The Istituto Marangoni is an exclusive fashion and design institute in Italy.
Milan, in Lombardy, is the institute's headquarters; it also has outposts in Florence, London, Paris, Shanghai, Shenzhen, Mumbai and Miami.
The university has partnerships with more than 4,500 global brands and businesses, giving students and alums access to a wealth of resources and opportunities. As a result of the school's close relationships with businesses on a worldwide and local scale, it is able to help current students and alums map out a career path that is tailored to their specific interests and aspirations within the fields of management and business.
Istituto Marangoni's Italia campuses teaches all of the Institute's core curricula:
- Fashion Courses
- Design Courses
- Art courses
Career services help students connect with possible employers, make business connections, and get internship experience.
By the time they graduate, practically all students have designed multiple collections for the Milan Fashion Show. Students visit profile displays, trading floors, presentations, and podium demonstrations as part of the curriculum.
