| Sculpture Senior Portfolio Review | All Seniors who are ready to graduate are required to participate in their departmental Senior Portfolio Review, which is always the last day of the term preceding the final term of study. This pre-graduation portfolio review is an initial step in preparing students for both their graduation exhibition and their movement from the academic environment into the professional world. | Class |
| Sculpture 1: Sculpture Practicum | Students develop practical skills to successfully execute, exhibit, and document their art works. The course includes honing visual thinking skills, understanding real–world exhibition concerns, documenting works with digital and slide formats, and becoming more self-aware of their process through readings about contemporary artists and writing exercises. | Class |
| Sculpture 2: Exhausting the Metaphor | In this course, students define their individual direction as they investigate more closely the issues that pertain to their work. Through the activity of locating a topic (or topics) of interest, students “exhaust the metaphor” in their work through the development of sound research methods and exploration of various new and traditional sculpture techniques. | Class |
| Sculpture Sophomore/ Junior Portfolio Review | Students who have completed over 60 credit hours (Junior year) are required to participate in a mid-career portfolio review before reaching 90 credits (Senior year). This review is designed to identify students’ strengths and weaknesses so that they may address both in their upcoming major course work. Prerequisite: FD1990 Freshman Portfolio Review | Class |
