Bachelor of Arts [B.A] [Metalsmithing] From Colorado State University

Class projects are designed to introduce and strengthen technical skills, as well as to provide awareness of both historical and contemporary practice within the field. The studio itself is well-equipped, with ample student access outside of scheduled class time. Metalsmithing students of all academic levels are encouraged to interact openly with one another, and graduate students are often informally available for technical assistance or critical analysis.

Students who major in  at  are expected to maintain a strong and active studio presence. Capstone classes require the development of a cohesive body of work, as well as an artist’s statement, resume, and participation in a final B.F.A. exhibition. Other exhibition opportunities exist throughout the duration of the program. Students are also encouraged to enter regional and national juried exhibitions, to participate in workshops and conferences, and ultimately to locate and establish a place for themselves within the field of metalsmithing either professionally, academically, or both.
