The World of Textiles Awaits
It's a multibillion-dollar global industry that's integrated into everything we do — and you could drive the field's next big advancements.
Leading the Way in Textiles Education
Textiles are all around us: from the playing field to the runway, shielding first responders from danger or even shoring up a human heart. At the Wilson College of Textiles, we teach you to apply textiles thinking to the grand challenges facing our world.
By the time you leave here, you’ll know there are thousands of ways to use what you’ve learned in a career that you’ll love. And because ours is the only college on this continent solely focused on textiles, our graduates are among the most sought-out anywhere.

Let’s take a trip to Florence, Italy with our textile design student Matthew Riddle.
He’s wrapping up his study abroad experience and we wanted to know what his favorite part was:
“Probably etching in my printmaking class. It’s a really old technique and less common nowadays and some of the best ones came from Italy. So it’s been really cool learning it here and being able to see the old ones in museums and galleries.”
Matthew is making his mark through his printmaking class! Read more about how you can get involved in study abroad through the link in our bio.
