-
1.00 Credits
Seminars will expose students to diverse views, as well as enable them to discuss broad issues that cut across several disciplines. New technology and processes, business ethics, industry forecasting and marketing innovations, as well as career information, are effectively presented in this format. One credit of Textile/Apparel Industry Issues is required for TD, TET, FD and FIM majors.
-
4.00 Credits
(writing intensive) Design, development, manufacturing, research and other thought-provoking problems are presented. Students will work in teams to analyze information/data on numerous textile- or apparel-related problems. The final project will reflect the work previously conducted in the TET Option and will constitute the final submission to each student's digital portfolio. Prerequisite: WRTG-2XX, completion of 12 credits in TET Option
-
3.00 Credits
The capstone course for students within the Textile Design major during which the students will develop a professional portfolio in actual and digital formats and refine work for their final exhibition. Students' individual interests will guide market research and the resultant development of targeted lists of potential employers. Resumes, cover letters and promotional packets will be developed during the course of the semester. Prerequisite: Senior status
-
6.00 Credits
A professional internship provides an opportunity for professional experience supporting application and further development of the knowledge gained in the classroom. Under faculty supervision, students work in positions related to the major, minor and/or career goal, develop learning objectives and complete reflective academic assignments. Students should be exposed to a broad spectrum of professional practice, particularly those not available in the academic setting, and are expected to make a professional contribution to their employer. Prerequisites: 2.5 G.P.A., completion of 60 credits, and permission of the Internship program director. Additional requirements may apply. See "Internship Program" sectionfor further details.
-
4.00 Credits
(writing intensive) This course presents an overview of the wet processing of fibers, yarns and fabrics. Included are the preparation, dyeing and finishing of textiles. Some emphasis is placed on the chemistry and technology involved in these operations. Dyes are studied by their method of application and the primary substrates to which they are applied. Chemical, thermal and mechanical processes are discussed for both preparation and finishing of fabrics. Prerequisite: CHEM-101 or CHEM 103, WRTG-101
-
4.00 Credits
Aliphatic, aromatic and heterocyclic compounds with emphasis on those syntheses and reactions that play a role in textile chemistry. Also includes the chemistry of carbohydrates and proteins, regenerated polymers, polymerization, synthetic polymers, the synthesis and chemistry of finishing agents and dyes. The laboratory portion illustrates basic techniques and reactions and the applications of textile chemistry. Prerequisite: CHEM 103
-
4.00 Credits
The structures and analysis of woven fabrics will be studied utilizing CAD, pick outs and laboratory assignments on industrial equipment. Weave structures will include plain, twills and satins (with their derivatives), color effects, textural effects (cords, piques, etc.) and pile weaves. Fabric will be mathematically analyzed for weight, yarn size, fabric count and yarn crimp to specify fabric structure. Necessary loom controls (draw, chains and reed plans) will be used to relate lectures and laboratory work on dobby looms. Pre- or corequisite: TEXT-113
-
3.00 Credits
This course focuses on the effects and interactions that yarn, color, texture and structure play in woven design. Working with multi-harness floor looms and dobby looms, students create warps and chains, and weave prototype cloth for various end uses. Prerequisite: WEAV-201
-
4.00 Credits
The principles and equipment involved in the design and production of Jacquard fabrics are studied. Students analyze, design and produce complex Jacquard fabrics on commercial equipment including computerized design and production systems. Prerequisite: WEAV-301
-
4.00 Credits
The variations, function, auxiliary devices and design characteristics of cam, dobby and Jacquard weaving machines, and the equipment used to support the weaving process are studied; along with relevant calculations regarding time, materials and production of fabrics. The technique required to accurately analyze fabrics for all critical components and methods to design fabrics for specific weight and compact cover, with consideration given to yarn size, texture, fiber type, weave and other fabric parameters, will be learned. Advanced multi-layer weaves will be studied, analyzed and woven. Prerequisite: WEAV-201
