The Jewelry + Metalsmithing major is built on a carefully planned curriculum that guides students through progressive levels of design and technical proficiency. The department’s small size and high ratio of faculty to students promotes individual attention, free exchange of information and positive support. Students are expected to be motivated and actively engaged in their studies, achieving an advanced level of technical refinement while maintaining high standards for both content and design.

In addition to the Bachelor of Fine Arts degree, the department offers a two- to three-year graduate program leading to the Master of Fine Arts degree.
