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.

It’s the first Monday in May so we asked our #NCStateWilson students who they would want to style for the event of the year, the Met Gala! Did we miss anyone?
Once again we are saying goodbye to another #NCStateWilson class!
We’ll miss you all but are so proud! Don’t forget to keep in touch and Congratulations #NCState24!
It’s that time again where we’re about to say goodbye to another Wilson class and we don’t know if we should be happy or sad!

Fashion and textile design first year studio is wrapping up! Let’s look back on their first group design project!
Students were tasked to create patterns by repeating their drawings and paintings in computer software.
From their sketchbook pages to finished products in computer aided design (CAD), these students made their visions come to life!
What show are you bingeing in the studio? That’s what we asked our Emerging Designers.
See what they had to say and don’t forget to grab your tickets to the fashion and textile design show on April 27 at the link in our bio!
