The undergraduate Glass program encourages students to cultivate a distinct artistic perspective, purposeful direction, and fundamental skills in glass artistry. Through diverse techniques like glassblowing, kiln casting, flame working, sand casting, and cold working, students discover their creative voice by selecting the most appropriate methods for their ideas. A core principle of the program is recognizing the importance of refinement—students are pushed to produce abundant experimental work while developing critical self-assessment skills. The Glass program emphasizes nurturing each emerging artist's, designer's, and craftsperson's unique talents to their fullest potential.
