Best Equipped for the Luxury Goods Industry - Master of Luxury & Sales Management curriculum


Study program - Master Fashion Management

The Master Fashion Management is carried out in three semesters plus the practice-oriented Master thesis. In the first semester you will get to know different sales structures, but also the right choice of real estate for your retail strategy. Pricing and product development of luxury goods also play a role at the beginning of your studies. Modules from the areas of Customer Relationship Management, Brand management and Design management are built on this.

You will spend the third semester of your Master's in Fashion Management at a foreign university that cooperates closely with ISM in order to shed light on the international perspective of the subject and promote intercultural skills.

The course is rounded off by a practical phase and practical projects integrated into the lectures. You will then write your practice-oriented Master's thesis in the fourth semester. This means that you will receive your?degree with 120 ECTS in the fourth semester.

If you wish to shorten your studies to only 3 semesters, you can select the Fast Track option, in which you graduate with only 90 ECTS and skip the semester abroad. More details below.
