Three Professional Certificate Programs

The first fully immersive Digital Product creation certificates built in conjunction with industry professionals who work in these industry positions. Be among the first to get the skills necessary for a cutting edge future in fashion. OSU has developed three new certificates, each utilizing the 3D digital Product creation skills needed for different positions in the apparel industry - 3D apparel design, 3D technical Design and 3D Artists. Each certificate pathway will teach students 3D skills and provide general knowledge of the overall 3D landscape in the fashion industry. Coursework will provide knowledge in navigating Browzwear software, allowing students to learn to use avatars and dress forms in a 3D space as well as pattern making in 3D, along with other industry utilized software. Determining appropriate materials for use and understanding placement of seams, artwork and trims helps to translate design into a 3D garment to be used for samples, fitting and testing fabric drapes. These simulations can be applied to different lighting environments and much more.

Designed

by industry with you in mind
This certificate series was ideated through the 3D Retail Coalition (3D.RC) Education committee comprised of dedicated industry professionals and educators who have met over the past seven years to determine the skills, skill level and knowledge needed in order to pursue a position in 3D Product Creation.
Each certificate pathway has four courses to complete with each requiring the completion of six or more modules that include instruction, assignments and practice.
System Requirements

Led by Experienced Instructor

These courses will be led by instructor Diane Limbaugh who has taught at OSU for more than a decade and provides industry insight and experience as a technical designer and owner of her own fashion brand.

"As a student who thrives in hands on activities and strives for perfection, the online courses for the 3D Digital Product Creation Certificate have challenged me in a great way. Not only am I learning to use advanced digital software programs, but I am also developing problem solving skills and communication skills with my fellow students as we help each other navigate this innovative technology."
