The Bachelor of Fine Arts concentration in clay is designed to prepare the student
to become a fine artist. The integration of studio and lecture courses in the curriculum
as well as activities and enrichment opportunities encourages the skills and concepts
essential to the student’s growth as an artist. The clay program emphasizes a strong
foundation in materials and techniques, broad competency in firing processes and operation
of studio equipment, development of personal artistic style and direction, and a thorough
exploration of historical and contemporary ceramic traditions. The clay curriculum
includes classes in hand building, throwing, surface design, ceramic history, ceramic
chemistry, and kilns/firing theory.
