In the Bachelor’s programme in Textiles, the students work through the practice of the craft in order to both acquire knowledge and generate new knowledge. They broaden their theoretical and practical textile knowledge and choose different paths for specialisation and to further expand their skills. Through their practice, the students pose questions, investigate and make assertions. They examine and re-examine the position they are working from and the various contexts they work within. They investigate what crafts are to them and how they should communicate this.

In their degree projects, the students use their materials and craft techniques to tell the story of experiences in order to investigate taste, gender, identity, norms, technology and state of mind so as to make these tangible for us and themselves.

After three years’ hard work, the bachelor’s students show through their work that they are capable of making relevant choices and that they have acquired the knowledge, insight and skills that are needed to keep working within the field, either as a professional or as a student in a master’s programme. We look forward to following their future careers and wish them the best of luck with everything!
