Sculptors are often self-employed artists, showing and selling their works in museums and galleries. They also complete commissioned works for public and private entities. Studying Sculpture at UNT prepares you for such a career and grooms you to pursue an advanced degree, which is needed if you want to teach in higher education.

As a Sculpture major, you’ll be challenged conceptually and technically, and much of your time will be spent creating original works. However, the curriculum also exposes you to all aspects of 3-D art and the different media in which to work, including computer-based design for digital fabrication. Our facilities include large, well-equipped studios, a foundry and indoor and outdoor studio space for stone sculpting, woodcarving, welding and casting.

The Art Building includes classrooms, a computer lab, faculty offices, a workshop and the UNT Art Gallery. Additional classrooms and laboratories, the Texas Fashion Collection and the Cora Stafford Gallery are housed in other buildings on campus.

There are opportunities to exhibit your work on campus and at local galleries. UNT’s proximity to Dallas and Fort Worth also offers you a wealth of experiences and resources. To provide other insights and knowledge, we bring numerous renowned artists, designers and scholars to campus.
