FMD 350 WI: Industry Challenge

The Industry Challenge Course is an essential hands-on experience course that challenges students to apply what they are currently learning in the classroom to the real world. Every year the challenge is with a company that is a leader in design, sourcing, manufacturing, and distribution of apparel. Responding to industry data and customer trends, the students must develop a product or a business strategy to grow the company’s portfolio or improve the company’s business practices. The expectation is to create a full proposal for launching with economic viability. (Department Chair Approval required)
