About the course

The Bachelor of Fine Arts (BFA) in Metals/Jewelry/CAD-CAM Program at the Tyler School of Art and Architecture, recognized as a national leader in the discipline, offers students access to world-class facilities, emergent technology and mentorship. Students learn both traditional techniques and cutting-edge digital practice and theory in jewelry, metals and computer-aided design and computer-aided manufacturing (CAD-CAM, one of several technologies pioneered for use in metals at Tyler). Students have access to the resources of Temple, a large, public research university, and Philadelphia, a premier center of jewelry making and a home base for exploring museums and galleries. Leveraging the expertise and professional networks of Tyler faculty—all practicing artists and leaders in the field—students find internships and connect with the regional and national metals and jewelry community. Tyler students graduate with a broad base of knowledge, critical thinking skills and the technological proficiency needed for success in the jewelry industry, artistic practice or top graduate schools. The proof is in the long list of Tyler MJCC alumni who are thriving at employers ranging from David Yurman to Tiffany & Co. Designed to complement the studio experience with tools to support a studio practice or pursue graduate studies, the Entrepreneurship coursework enhances students' career options. Graduates of this degree program will possess requisite business skills to support themselves as visual artists or entrepreneurs in art and related fields.
