Ceramics
B.A. or B.F.A. in Studio Art with Concentration in Ceramics
The Ceramics concentration challenges students to use clay as an expressive medium and think conceptually about their work while considering historic aspects of the medium.
Different Techniques in Ceramics
In this program all levels of ceramics are covered, from basic hand-building methods to the use of the potter’s wheel and independent study. At the upper level, emphasis is on developing students’ individual concepts alongside greater sensitivity to and experimentation with clay. Classes address both conceptual (sculptural) and functional forms.
What You Will Learn
All students will learn the chemistry of ceramics materials, develop an understanding of clay and glazes, and learn multiple firing techniques, both to advance their own work and for competency in future jobs.
