Check fees and funding optionsOn our BA (Hons) Fashion Branding & Communication degree course, tell stories that move fashion forward. Build brands that people remember.
From your first project to your final major work, you'll develop your ability to communicate through visual language – photography, art direction, editorial design, video, and digital media. You'll research, concept, and produce fashion media to a professional standard – and develop the kind of creative instincts that set UCA graduates apart.
Making beautiful work is only half of the job. Through modules in marketing foundations, brand development, audience insight, and data technology, you'll develop the strategic understanding and ability to turn creative ideas into commercial products.
At Epsom, fashion designers, stylists, photographers, and marketers study under the same sky – which shapes your experience and your portfolio. You'll produce your own magazines in the print studio, shoot in photo studios, and research using industry platforms including WGSN, Mintel, and the Vogue archive.
Your dissertation isn’t a 10,000 word essay, it’s whatever you want it to be. Students have chosen it as an opportunity to launch a beauty brand, produce podcasts, or create visual narratives that blend storytelling and strategy to show off their commercial acumen. Whatever you’re drawn to is a direction you can go in.
UCA courses are built around the things we know matter most to creative students:
Get practical and stuck in – spend most of your time in studios and workshops. Over 80% of our teaching spaces are studios, workshops, or labs.
Understand history, culture and context to give your work depth. Our degrees were established by BAFTA and Oscar winners.
Collaboration is built into the curriculum, where you’ll make friends and future creative partners. Our Shared modules link work from students from up to 15 courses. This module focuses on how you collaborate, not what you deliver. Setting you up for success in a creative community.
Build skills, resilience, and industry awareness that prepare you for a successful creative career. Our courses have been designed with industry, focussing on your professional pathway, you’ll learn about grant applications, self-employment, and how to nail creative job interviews.
Inclusive assessment, synchronised deadlines, and a student experience built with real life in mind. Our courses are focussed on being inclusive. We listen to our students, and you learn and get feedback how you want it.

Second year Fashion Management & Marketing student Eve Jappy is settling into her new life in Amsterdam whilst on her work placement...
/prod01/channel_8/media/marketing-media/stories/eve-jappy-calvin-klein-8.png)
7.30am: My alarm goes off and I jump in the shower, getting myself ready for a full day in the office at Calvin Klein.
The first thing I had to get used to in Amsterdam was that everyone cycles around the city. So, of course I got myself a bike and now I feel like I fit in with the locals!
/prod01/channel_8/media/marketing-media/stories/eve-jappy-calvin-klein-5.png)
9.00am: I head up to the sixth floor to the Calvin Klein Creative Hub, where I work with the visual merchandising, creative services, store design and architecture teams.
10.30am: We have a team meeting between the visual merchandisers and store design. I’m learning so much from sitting in on meetings and listening to everyone’s creative processes.
/prod01/channel_8/media/marketing-media/stories/eve-jappy-calvin-klein-6.png)
3.00pm: This afternoon I’ve been assisting on a photoshoot for some of the new women’s lingerie range.
This has been a great experience for me, working alongside photographers, stylists and the shoot manager. It’s a lot of work and running around, which can be tiring, but I’m having a great time and learning so much from everyone.
/prod01/channel_8/media/marketing-media/stories/eve-jappy-calvin-klein-7.jpg)
8.00pm: I head out for dinner a beautiful restaurant called MaMa Kelly with some girls from work.
In my spare time, I’ve been trying to explore as much of the city as possible. So far, De Pijp has been my favourite neighbourhood. It’s got a very cool, young and trendy vibe.
/prod01/channel_8/media/marketing-media/stories/eve-jappy-calvin-klein-3.jpg)
I have learnt so much from the Calvin Klein team so far on my placement. I would really encourage anyone to do a placement abroad while studying if you get the chance. It may seem scary but it is so worth it as you get to experience different cultures and nationalities.
I am so thankful that my course leader really encouraged us to put a lot of effort into our LinkedIn and digital portfolios, because it helped to get me noticed in the industry and opened up this fantastic opportunity.

Final year BA (Hons) Fashion Business and Management student, Nicole Clachar, has just completed a year in industry at Walt Disney as Website Merchandising Intern for the Disney Store website.
/prod01/channel_8/media/marketing-media/news/Nicole-Clachar-Walt-Disney-Placement-03.jpg)
There have been a lot of highlights during my year. Professionally being able to network in such a vast company and personally, getting the opportunity to volunteer for amazing charities such as Rise Against Hunger and Make a Wish.
/prod01/channel_8/media/marketing-media/news/Nicole-Clachar-Walt-Disney-Placement-01.jpg)
“I have seen many different parts of the industry that I would like to explore more and have built my skillset whilst on placement. I look forward to implementing what I've learnt in my final year and really making the most of what's available at UCA.”
I would absolutely recommend an industry placement, it gives you hands on experience and networking opportunities that you just cannot get in a classroom. It also creates new opportunities and has updated my CV and LinkedIn presence.

Whilst originally studying Fashion Promotion and Imaging, Phoebe and a coursemate made a list of all the small bands they liked and contacted them for a photo passes, making use their access to the equipment at UCA to build a portfolio.
She then swapped courses to study Music Marketing and Promotion and has since gone on to travel the world and tour with acts such as The Amazons and Anne Marie.
/prod01/channel_8/media/uca-2020/news/blog/The-Amazons-backstage-@shotbyphox.jpeg)
Music Marketing and Promotion ticked all my boxes; it featured photography, but also focused on the music business surrounding it.
While studying, I had time to build my own business and put what I was learning at university into practice, combining creating content and promotion for friends in bands, with class projects and networking.
Phoebe told UCA about how seeing fanbases grow for artists she's worked with is something really special to her.
“You see the whole journey, ups and downs, the challenges and growth people go through. It’s so personal. When someone like that sells out a big show or does something they’ve always wanted to, you feel like part of it.”
/prod01/channel_8/media/uca-2020/news/blog/anne-marie.jpg)
I spent three years balancing touring, festivals, shows and portraits with university commitments and deadlines. There’s no way I would have been able to do that without the support and flexibility given to me by the UCA lecturers.
By the end of those three years, I handed in the final major project, went home to pack and got straight on a tour bus for a six-week run with Anne Marie.

UCA asked Phoebe what the best piece of career advice she'd ever been given:
“Learn the rules before you break them!”

David Hulin graduated in 1998 with a degree in Animation, which at the time was the only degree of its kind offered in Europe.
Since then, he’s gone on to become a powerhouse in CGI animation and VFX for hundreds of commercials for the US market and has worked on a number of films and television shows too, including Harry Potter and Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt.
/prod01/channel_8/media/marketing-media/blog-imagery/David-Hulin---GEICO-copy.jpg)
When we won the account, the GEICO gecko was already in existence – they just wanted it to be more expressive and be the star of the commercials... We were booked to do nine commercials, but by the time I left Framestore we’d made 99 commercials!
David is now founder and Managing Director of Free Range VFX in New York, which has clients including LEGO and Kellogg’s, but is also working separately on its own original animated content.

I remember the horror of my graduation show, answering questions from people while you stand by your work – it’s very exposing and intimidating. But I’ve found human connection really does help, as well as being persistent (without being annoying!)
