Lindenwood University

Lindenwood University is based in St Charles, Missouri - and has been providing fashion-based art courses and degrees since 1997. The programs are taught through the Fine and Performing Arts division of the University, with the J. Schiedegger Centre for the Arts (name of the campus) being a significant part of the of the overall university grounds.

Programmes in the fashion-based art courses lead students down new creative paths, to develop new skills which will surely be useful in later life.

Some of these skills comprise segments from the following topics:

• Drawing
• Ceramics
• Photography
• Painting
• Fashion design

Student Life at Lindenwood

Student life at Lindenwood University is unique in that the university realises that students have their own ways of learning, developing, and realising talents. In many cases, the college has formulated new ways of thinking and new processes to extract these abilities.

Aspects which have been implemented to improve student - university relations include:

• Smaller class sizes.
• Online help seminars and additional tuition.
• Student-based support groups.
• Liaison groups between administrators, professors, and students.

Ultimately, correspondence and communication has resulted in cooperation between university staff and students on a number of hugely important factors. For example, three new fashion design modules were recently added to the curriculum - as demand for courses and specialties has grown exponentially.

This leaves students at Lindenwood University (and prospective students who are considering attending) in a position which fosters success, collaboration, and development. We don't think you could ask for anything more out of a university.
