这个基于工作室的计划提供了当代的城市环境，可以进行严格的调查和对话，以支持个人艺术发展。研究生学习（以及冒险冒险，重塑个人过程和思维的内在邀请）发生在各个工作室的私密空间中，这是通过与教职顾问协商进行独立的研究和实验，以及通过激发与同伴的互动来实现的。许多MFA候选人还选择通过跨学科工作来丰富和扩展他们的实践。研究生们通过现场研究以及参加在纽约，波士顿，欧洲，日本和其他地方的会议，在校园内外从事独立的陶瓷工作室工作。通过积极参与工作室评论和研讨会，研究生们研究了陶瓷的社会，历史，哲学和技术基础，批判理论和
In support of individual artistic development, the two-year Master of Fine Arts in Ceramics offers a contemporary, urban context for rigorous investigation and dialogue. Graduate study - and the inherent invitation to take risks and reinvent personal processes and thinking - occurs in the privacy of individual studio spaces, through independent research and experimentation in consultation with faculty advisors, as well as through inspiring interaction with peers. Many MFA candidates also choose to enrich and broaden their practice through interdisciplinary work. Graduate students engage in independent studio work in ceramics, both on campus and off-through field research and participation in conferences in New York, Boston, Europe, Japan and elsewhere. Through active participation in studio critiques and seminars, graduate students investigate the social, historical, philosophical and technical foundations of ceramics, critical theory and contemporary issues. They learn to articulate their ideas through written and verbal communication as well as visual presentation.
