Course Structure

Ethical Fashion, Sustainability and Cultural Diplomacy
This Executive Master provides core knowledge in ethical fashion, focusing on responsible sourcing, circular design, and cross-border business negotiation. Participants explore how cultural diplomacy influences the global fashion industry, learning to solve real business challenges, build ethical sourcing partnerships, and deliver strategic brand storytelling for global markets.

Executive Master Based Online and in Milan
Delivered both online and on campus in Milan, the programme offers direct access to a leading global fashion capital where sustainability and innovation coexist. Designed for international working professionals, executives, and decision-makers, the flexible executive format allows participants to sharpen their strategic skills while continuing their professional activity.

Immersive Fashion Experience in Milan
Through curated site visits to pioneer ethical brands, textile labs, and craft studios, participants experience Milan’s fashion ecosystem as structured networking opportunities. The programme connects professionals directly with founders and hosts across the value chain, fostering real business connections, supply chain insights, and international collaboration opportunities

Learning by Doing and Final Project
The Master adopts a practical approach through collaborative labs and strategic workshops. Rather than a theoretical concept, participants base their Capstone Project on an actual challenge from their own company or a real industry brand, delivering an actionable strategy ready for immediate implementation and maximum business ROI.

Joint International Certification
Upon completion, participants receive a joint certificate from UNITAR, Ferrari Fashion School, and Ureka, granting access to an exclusive ongoing Alumni Network. To maximize real-world impact, the programme includes a 30-day post-immersion check-in to track concept implementation, strengthening long-term career value and global professional networks.
