Integration of fashion design education with innovation and entrepreneurship education

Abstract

The paper proposes a systematic education framework combining fashion major with innovation and entrepreneurship in higher education, in terms of target and position, curriculum system, teaching methods, practical platform, quality evaluation, teaching staff, and teaching materials. An empirical study was conducted using BIF (Business+Internet+Fashion) method to verify the framework. Thus, a solution is provided to the gap of convergence between fashion education and innovation and entrepreneurship education.
