The Metals / Jewelry program offers a thorough exploration of technical processes that can apply to jewelry and forms of adornment, or larger sculptural works in metal. While the overall program emphasis is placed on ideation, the courses are also structured to encourage students to pursue the materials and technical processes inherent in working with non-ferrous metals. The beginning Metals / Jewelry courses have a significant amount of demonstrations, slide lectures and discussions on readings that address specific technical practice, and theoretical concerns to making. As the student moves through the program, they begin developing individual coherent bodies of work and have a solid technical skill set with the materials. The Graduation Presentation Seminar course helps to prepare the student approaching the end of their studies, by focusing on practical and professional issues that are of concern upon entering the field of Metals / Jewelry.
