ADVANCED CERAMICS
Advanced Ceramics Techniques is an advanced-level course in the ceramics processes. This course is an independent study,
designed to allow the ceramic student to expand and build upon the skills and knowledge acquired in Ceramics I and II. Students are expected to
produce ceramic pieces of superior levels of quality and competency. This course may be elected for one or more semesters; therefore, it is
advised that the student meet with the instructor prior to scheduling. In order to repeat the course for additional credit, the student must maintain
an 80 percent average or higher.
