About the course
In support of individual artistic development, the two-year Master of Fine Arts in Ceramics offers a contemporary, urban context for rigorous investigation and dialogue. Graduate study - and the inherent invitation to take risks and reinvent personal processes and thinking - occurs in the privacy of individual studio spaces, through independent research and experimentation in consultation with faculty advisors, as well as through inspiring interaction with peers. Many MFA candidates also choose to enrich and broaden their practice through interdisciplinary work. Graduate students engage in independent studio work in ceramics, both on campus and off-through field research and participation in conferences in New York, Boston, Europe, Japan and elsewhere. Through active participation in studio critiques and seminars, graduate students investigate the social, historical, philosophical and technical foundations of ceramics, critical theory and contemporary issues. They learn to articulate their ideas through written and verbal communication as well as visual presentation. Scholarships - View all scholarships Internships
