Program Overview

Spend your summer living and learning in Milan, one of the leading hubs for fashion and design worldwide! As the home to many high-end fashion houses – such as Armani, Dolce & Gabbana, MiuMiu, and Prada – studying abroad in Milan offers you the unique opportunity to learn about global trends in fashion design, fabrics, materials, sales, and marketing in Italy’s second-largest city and unofficial fashion capital.

Designed for students interested in fashion, retail, and innovation, this summer program is ideal for students looking to enroll in a course, delivered in English by highly qualified faculty, at the Milan Fashion Institute. Outside the classroom, you’ll have every opportunity to enjoy all Milan has to offer! Explore the city’s 200+ boutiques, indulge in one of its nearly 6,000 restaurants, and participate in excursions beyond the city to enhance classroom learning and intercultural understanding.
