This study examined the perceptions of Myanmar university students and professors regarding the status and necessity of higher education programs in fashion. Data were collected from professors in textile engineering at Yangon Technological University and Myanmar university students. Closed- and open-ended questions were asked either through interviews or by email. The responses were analyzed using keyword extraction and categorization, and descriptive statistics(closed questions). Generally, the professors perceived higher education, as well as the cultural industries including art and fashion, as important for Myanmar's social and economic development. According to the students interests in pursuing a degree in textile were limited, despite the high interest in fashion. Low wages in the apparel industry and lack of fashion degrees that meet the demand of students were cited as reasons. The demand was high for educational programs in fashion product development, fashion design, pattern-making, fashion marketing, branding, management, costume history, and cultural studies. Students expected to find their future career in textiles and clothing factories. Many students wanted to be hired by global fashion brands for higher salaries and training for advanced knowledge and technical skills. They perceived advanced fashion education programs will have various positive effects on Myanmar's national economy.

The purpose of this study is to identify the key decision-making variables that lead fashion company employees to participate in the fashion education programs offered by university lifelong education centers. This study also examined the education satisfaction level and preferred education method and evaluated a university lifelong education program by surveying a fashion company employees who completed a fashion education program. As decision making variables, this study included participation purposes, obstacles, and evaluation criteria. While questionnaires were used to identify the decision making variables, education satisfaction level, and preferred education method, focus group interviews were used to evaluate the university lifelong education program. The findings showed that the respondents enrolled in the program mostly because of personal motivations and considered the workload and time limitation as participating obstacles. They considered educational content as the most important evaluation criteria for participating in the program and were highly satisfied with the program they completed. This study suggests how university lifelong education centers may structure their fashion education programs to better appeal to the employees of fashion companies.

In order to develop a new fashion business curriculum, this study attempts to evaluate fashion business curriculum in both domestic and foreign schools and to analyze their existing training programs. The results of this study shows that the analysis of domestic fashion business curriculum shows that 'in the field' knowledge is in need for the new fashion education program where students can be more exposed to the industry environments especially in the area of markets, sales, distribution and management. Also, the analysis of fashion marketing curriculum of F.I.T and PARSONS school of design demonstrates their emphasis on practical as well as academic programs in marketing, distribution and merchandising. In addition, the research on sales person training program reflects that future sales persons will need stronger knowledge in customer analysis, product display and shop management. Based on these findings, this investigation proposes a revised second year fashion business undergraduate program. The academic program in this updated module will place heavier emphasis on such fields as marketing, distribution, product planning and sales management. Also recommended is that the second year students will be exposed to real-world experience by participating in various internships and workshops offered by major companies in the fashion field.

Fashion is subjected to newness and change by itself. Fashion trend and tendency which could predict next season akeady indicated that digital and cybel11ation environment lliould be factors in fashion. Changes in future life styles and values caused by digital environment must be variables as fashion objects by themselves. Therefore digital environment of a fashion itself and that all encountered in fashion will not only be an existing situation but also an objective and a factor which must be pursued with fashionable sense in future fashion. Advanced technology and social change in relation to digital environment requires that educational method as well as its content will be changed on the scene of education for future. Thus we should seek an educational direction in fashion design for future society in which digital environment requires new paradigm. Subject to these backgrounds this study has an intension to study the change in fashion extensively influenced by expanded digital environment on a limited situational level of fashion design education and to suggest an educational direction for professional in future fashion design who will serve as a core of fashion area in the future. It is essential that education of professional in fashion for future should be achieved by digital-minded level that eagerly understands and accepts future society in which digital environment will be a main axis. It is necessary for this to make them expetience computers, digital media including CAD program. We have to note that education of digital media is more effective and applicable when accomplished in CAI level which can be related and expetienced with fashion education rather than mere functional training in media themselves. Intellectual creativity will be a vety source of producing values and national competence in 21st centtury. Education of design professional in fashion area must positively accept these environmental charactetistics in future society, as well as deeply reflect the education for the future.

최근 경기부진에 따른 고용악화로 실업이 늘고, 고학력자들과 청년실업의 문제는 심각한 사회문제로까지 부각되는 반면, 기업측면에서 보면 우수 인력자들의 부족 현상 또한 심각한 고용문제로 대두되고 있다. 따라서 국내 패션관련 학과에서는 우수한 패션디자이너와 기술자를 양성하는 산학협동 교육시스템을 운영하여 패션산업 현장에서 필요한 우수 전문인력을 양성하고, 산학공동협력 프로그램을 활성화하고 산학교류를 확대하여 졸업생들의 취업률을 향상시키고자 하는 움직임이 일고 있다. (중략)

The purpose of this study is to propose a fashion design creativity convergence education program based on creative thinking that can be effectively used to create a creative fashion design in the fashion education field, and to verify the suitability of this program and its effectiveness in improving creativity. To this end, a fashion design creative convergence program combining divergent thinking and convergence thinking was designed, and an experimental study was conducted among college students in the fashion design department. Creativity evaluation was conducted by evaluating students' creative ability and creativity of fashion design results. In addition, an open survey was conducted to collect learners' opinions on the suitability of the program and the convergence process of divergent and convergent thinking. As a result of this study, it was found that the fashion design creative convergence education program based on creative thinking improves the creative competency of major learners of fashion design and is the learning performance competency in the process of producing creative results. This study is meaningful as it is a basic study that proposes a fashion design education program to foster the creative competency of fashion design majors, and is expected to be used in various ways in the educational field.

끊임없이 발전하는 기술은 4차 산업혁명시대를 열게하는 중심이 되었으며 세상의 모든 것을 변화시켜가고 있다. 최근에는 혁신적이고 고도화된 IT 기술이 완전히 다른 분야와 유기적으로 융합하여 새로운 가치를 만들어 가고 있다. 특히 패션 분야에서는 이와 같은 선도적인 기술을 바탕으로 패션, 그 이상의 기능을 담당하는 '스마트패션'의 시대를 맞이하고 있다. 패션에서의 새로운 산업 분야로 자리매김하고 있는 스마트패션에 대한 사용자의 요구가 증대하고 새로운 제품을 출시하고자 하는 기업의 시도가 계속되고 있으나 학교 현장에서는 이에 대한 적절한 교육과정이 부재한 상태이다. 특히 IT 엔지니어와 패션 디자이너와의 협업의 경험이 전무할뿐만 아니라 제품을 설계하고 제작해 나가는 과정에 대한 개념이 서로 완전히 상이하여 융합의 시도가 단지 시도로 그치고 있는 실정이다. 이에 본 연구에서는 IT와 패션 전공 학생들이 함께 참여할 수 있는 융합 교과 과정을 설계함으로써 미래의 산업사회 요구에 선제적으로 대응하고자 한다. 이를 통해 상이한 전공을 가지고 있는 두 전공 학생들에게 타 전공에 대한 지식을 이해할 수 있는 기회를 제공하는 동시에 융합에 대한 경험을 충분히 제공함으로써 미래 시장으로의 선도 진입과 역할 수행의 적합성을 이루어 낼 수 있도록 한다.
