- Description
- The MFA in metals and jewelry design is a professional degree for practicing artists, craftspeople, or designers who desire to leave a lasting impression on their fields through devotion to their work and to the high standards of discipline and artistic ideals. By immersing yourself in soldering, fabrication, stone setting, silversmithing, forging, and casting, this jewelry design degree will develop your knowledge and deepen your experience. You will work with different theories and materials while you are challenged to think unconventionally to redefine industry standards. You will spend ample time creating work while also exploring the process of critical analysis of your studio work. You will also gain deep knowledge in gallery administration and operations, and you'll participate in gallery and museum visitations and research. You will also learn the business side of art, including portfolio management, pricing, marketing strategies, and public relations–all skills needed by artists who embark on a professional career as a studio artist. The program involves the presentation of a thesis at the end of your studies.
