The Graduate Sculpture Program at VCU is a major force in the School of the Arts and beyond. This is best measured by the fact that we attract challenging, talented and curious students from around the globe. In addition to that, US News and World Report ranks our Sculpture MFA program first in the United States. Our students are drawn by the ever-increasing visibility of the department's alumni and the reputation of a highly diversified and talented faculty. Through studio reviews, seminars, critiques and research, students build a complex awareness of the contemporary and historical definitions of art that influence their creative work. In addition to their own investigations, graduate students participate in and contribute to the undergraduate program through teaching assistantships, critiques, etc.
