Course summary
This program’s philosophy is far-reaching, and embraces all aspects of the medium. From traditional aspects such as pottery, to contemporary attitudes concerning sculpture, the department strives to allow each student their own expression. Their classes are technique-oriented for the novice, since without technical knowledge there can be no progress. As each student gains ability and confidence in the handling of the material, they may begin to explore their own vision of the medium. The Ceramics program does not focus on one particular “way” of explaining clay and its purpose, but rather guides the student by challenging each individual to understand their own need to use ceramics as a means to an end.
