Through challenging assignments, critiques, lectures, demonstrations, fieldtrips and one-on-one conversations, students in our Ceramics BFA program discover individual artistic strengths, develop a personal voice and express a range of experiences. Sophomores are introduced to sculpture and pottery through the processes of throwing, hand-building, mold-making, glazing and firing. Technique is integrated with ideas, aesthetics and personal expression in the context of contemporary and historical ceramic practice. Juniors move beyond the studio and into the world through commissions and community-engaged projects. Digital technology is central in the Materials Research class for clay, glaze and advanced kiln firing approaches.
