AMFI maintains close contact with the fashion industry. These relationships are valuable to us and provide continuous feedback and knowledge. AMFI cooperates with companies on internships, graduation assignments, guest lectures and study projects. Partners can collaborate in different ways with us and our students; in return students can provide you with valuable knowledge, inspiration and new insights. Below we indicate several ways in which a company or future partner can get involved.
For more information about the possibilities, please contact: amfi-connect@hva.nl
In the third year, students do a full-time internship of 20 weeks. They will be coached by a lecturer from AMFI and by a professional from the partner involved. We aim to enable students to put their experience, skills and knowledge, developed in the first phase of the study programme, into practice. Internships start twice a year, in September and in February.

At AMFI, students are provided with theory, knowledge and skills, but examples straight from everyday working life are a valuable addition. Would you like to share your vision, experience and knowledge about the fashion industry with our students? Then sign up to be a guest lecturer.

Throughout the four years of our bachelor programme, AMFI students work on numerous projects, including collaborations with partners from within and outside of the fashion industry. Our students provide a fresh take on your brand and its possibilities, often providing input and inspiration to integrate into the organisations and beyond.
AMFI is always looking for partners who can provide these assignments and be part of the team of coaches during their research and creative process.

Graduation projects are reviewed by an internal, qualified examiner and external jurors. The external juror is someone who has good knowledge of the fashion industry and can give beneficial feedback to the graduates. Furthermore, the external juror is present during the final exam. Whilst you are not officially grading the work that day, you do provide invaluable feedback to students.

Throughout the academic year, AMFI students visit partners, national or international, where they gain an inside view of the fashion industry and beyond. AMFI is therefore, always looking for companies willing to facilitate these visits. The excursions usually last 1½ -2 hours and comprises of approximately 25 students.
