What are fashion and lifestyle companies looking for when they hire? Advanced data skills.
Brands and retailers react to consumer demand, but how do they know what consumers want? The answer is data. Data collection and interpretation are what’s driving business decisions across fashion and lifestyle. In turn, the number of jobs in this field is hitting an all-time high, with demand for employees with data skills exceeding the number of candidates who possess them.
This master's program is designed for managers in fashion and fashion-adjacent industries who make decisions across functional areas (marketing, design, product development, merchandising, supply chain, etc.) as well as professionals who need to work with data scientists to make strategy decisions, and those interested in pursuing analytics as a new career.
