Programme

This programme aims to provide students with the technical knowhow behind the design of activewear and sports fashion which integrates both design and technology aspects. Participating students are guided to understand the complex problems of fit, support, functionality and practical use of different activewear. A novel design and development approach will incorporate the use of 3D body scanning techniques, and body anthropometry study, as well as advanced fabric structures, new design features and functional materials. These will be introduced to address the stringent requirements in the design of activewear for various end-users and sports activities.
