At IUS Ceramics, we provide many opportunities for current and prospective students, as well as those interested in coming to IUS Ceramics for post-baccalaureate studies or our Resident Artist Program. If you have any questions about the program, feel free to contact Brian Harper, Associate Professor of Fine Art and Head of the Ceramics Program, harperba@ius.edu.
Undergraduate Studies:
The IU Southeast Fine Art Program offers a 120 credit hour BFA with concentrations in Ceramics, Painting, Printmaking, Digital Art and Interactive Media, Drawing, and Graphic Design. The Ceramics studio has a comprehensive set of equipment and stocks over 100 clay and glaze making materials. Our tuition is much lower than University of Louisville, Kentucky College of Art and Design, and Bellarmine University. If you have any questions about the program, or would like to schedule a visit, feel free to contact Brian Harper at harperba@ius.edu.
