With vibrant hubs in downtown Los Angeles and Phoenix, ASU FIDM offers fashion degrees at both the bachelor’s and associate levels, continuing FIDM’s mission of preparing students for successful careers in the industry.

The legacy of FIDM is shaped by generations of talent who continue to make their mark on the industry. Whether you’re a former FIDM student, alum, faculty or staff member—you’re invited to expand your network and join our community.

FIDM is reimaging the college as a business school for the creative industries. We are in the process of aligning with an international business school that will offer students in our creative business majors (Merchandising & Marketing, Beauty Marketing & Product Development, Digital Marketing, Business Management, and our MBA) the opportunity to study both in the U.S. and internationally. For information on individual degree pathway options available for specific majors/programs, we encourage students to reach out to their Department Chair or their Student Advisor in the Student Success Department (Suite 401, 213-624-1200, extension 5110).

Alumni Hannah Roeloffs and Matthew Alexander (A.A.
