Students in the program develop critical thinking skills, refine their intellectual and creative processes, and learn both traditional and contemporary aspects of the sculptor’s craft. The program provides a solid foundation for students pursuing graduate studies or a studio art career and for students wanting to build on their creative training through further professional and/or academic experiences.

Herron’s sculpture program encourages investigation into all forms of media, from traditional to non-traditional materials, installation, video, and performance. From the first three-dimensional project through the fourth year of advanced work, you will experience consistent growth.

You will be exposed to a broad base of practical information, critical analysis, and creative discourse through a team teaching approach. Your critical thinking skills will develop as you refine your creative processes and learn both traditional and contemporary aspects of the sculptor’s craft.

Plus, our multimedia fabrication and foundry facilities provide a level of sophisticated technical experience that few, if any, other undergraduate programs can match.
