Industry professionals teach sewing, fashion drawing, design, pattern drafting (both by hand and CAD), Digital Fashion Design, Merchandising, Styling, and more. Students have access to a well-equipped design lab, specialized databases and industry publications. The long-running spring fashion show featuring student-created brands, is an annual highlight for the program.

ā€œIā€™m proud to create a product that can prevent the ill effects -- precancers, skin cancers, photo-aging ā€“ of sun exposure on the hands and one day generate profits to support a small burn clinic in Chiapas state in Mexico. This all started at Pima Community College in a Fashion Design class, something I never imagined.ā€
