Lawson Family Business Fellow in Fashion

The Lawson Fellow will collaborate with key campus partners to shape and execute the future of Villanova’s Business of Fashion Society (BoFS), while building a university-wide network to engage students interested in business-focused fashion careers. Serving as advisor to the BoFS, the Lawson Fellow will set annual goals in collaboration with the student leaders and VSB’s O’Donnell Center for Professional Development.

The Lawson Fellow will oversee business of fashion and beauty industry-related career education opportunities and guide signature initiatives such as the annual Business of Fashion Symposium and client-based Immersion Projects. The role includes partnering with career education leaders to strengthen VSB’s student business society culture, expanding industry-focused programming and resources, and engaging alumni and employers to create experiential learning, professional development, and career opportunities. Additionally, the Lawson Fellow will provide individual and group career coaching for students and may teach a special topics course focused on fashion and beauty industry trends and dynamics.
