Department of Textiles, Fashion Merchandising and Design
This degree is offered in conjunction with the College of Business Administration, which is AACSB-accredited. The Textile Marketing program is thus the only such accredited program in the United States. It combines a major in textiles with courses that meet the degree requirements in the College of Business Administration. Textile Marketing graduates thus develop a knowledge of the market research, product development and sales functions of corporations producing fibers, yarns, fabrics and apparel, and for interiors and industrial customers. Interested prospective students should review the Program Requirements, List of TMD courses, and the Advising Guide.
Prospective students can find general URI application information at the Admissions Office.
