The Clemson faculty appreciates the full range of ceramic form and encourages the innovation and progress of the clay medium. Students are exposed to methods that service both functional and sculptural creation. Instruction focuses on work habit and self-criticism, as well as the development of a thorough awareness of current and historic efforts in the field. Clemson offers a Ceramic technology course that explores glaze creation and kiln design. These skills are meant to enhance a student's understanding of their medium and facilitate fine-tuned expression.
The faculty fosters community building activities for student participation. The collaborative firing of the Vatagama kiln attracts ceramicists from all over the south. Along with learning the anagama firing process, students get to meet professionals in their field.
Students are also offered the opportunity to attend the annual NCECA conference.
