In an ever more selective and competitive market with an increasing

unemployment rate, education and specialized programs become

the key factor in finding a job or re-qualifying professionally.

In fact, the root of the problem remains to be the gap between job profiles

wanted by companies and people who have very little technical knowledge.

The LIUC University in collaboration with Città Studi have therefore created a

new Master in Management & Textile Engineering: Master MTE.

The main objective is to respond to the needs of companies searching for

qualified profiles with a specialized education, excellent technical skills and a

proactive approach.

Feature of this Master is not only the quality of contents and the professors

from LIUC University including consultants, professionals and entrepreneurs,

but also the opportunity to complete the program with a stage in one of the

many leading companies of the sector.

The advantages of the Master MTE:

• a “tailor-made” program created according to the needs of textile

companies

• direct contact with leading companies of the sector

• a multicultural environment

• networking opportunities for the future

A unique program to develop personal and professional growth.

INTRODUCTIONINTRODUCTION

A journey towards excellence.

A journey to discover a world-unique organism regarding

creativity, know-how and innovation.

The Italian fashion and luxury goods are constantly

under the spotlight: famous brand names

on the fashion runways.

However, behind the star-designers, there is a dense

network of small-medium companies working for those

designers, invisible to the

public eye. These companies with highly specialized skills,

guarantee the absolute quality of the product.

There’s more: many of these Italian companies

also collaborate with famous international brands,

who find in our country top quality skills

in producing textile yarns, fabrics, clothing

and other accessories.

With the Master MTE, our focus is to launch a virtual circle

of innovation in order to educate new managers

capable of facing today’s globalization challenges.

The Master MTE guides the participants in understanding

the techniques and the depths of the textile and fashion

sector while discovering managerial skills, which are

necessary to achieve excellent business results.

The technical aspects may therefore be combined

with the art of understanding and managing

all textile products.

Once combined, the interior quality and not only exterior,

appears on the product, service and the entire cycle.

We invite you to take this interesting cultural journey

with us from well beyond the surface

and behind the scenes of the fashion industry

into the Italian textile production cycle.

The textile and fashion products are

certainly among the main sectors of

Italian excellence.

The Master MTE aims to provide

Engineering, Economics and Science

graduates with technical

and managerial skills in order to enter

companies of the sector with

professionalism. Today, these

companies are rapidly growing and

always in need of a work force who

has been specifically trained for this

sector.

In particular, the Master MTE, has set

an objective to form professionals with

an expansive and multi-tasking profile.

Professionals in a Textile company

must in fact, be able to combine

creativity and innovation with the

ability to examine, interpret and

anticipate the business through

knowledge and specific management

tools.

The network of contacts with the big

textile brands and Fashion, as well as

leading players of the sector, will

provide participants important

opportunities to enter the working

world.

After completing the class lectures

participants will be ready to enter

textile, clothing and fashion companies

for the internship in the following job

roles:

• Quality Control

• Supply Chain

• Production Management

• Business Unit Management
