Field Trip

The Field Trip classes at LIM are a unique opportunity for students to explore  the fashion industry first hand. An integral part of the LIM curriculum, Field Trip is a required course for all freshmen and sophomores.

Each week for an entire semester, students visit various companies in New York City. The locations are diverse... ranging from a buying office to a manufacturer’s showroom, from a public relations firm to a specialty store. Students meet with an executive from the company who will share insights into the fashion industry.

Field trips have been designed to give students a cross section of experiences and an awareness of career opportunities in the fields of merchandising and marketing. LIM students are introduced to the resources of the New York Metropolitan area and are provided with an invaluable experience both culturally and professionally.
