Sculpture

The Division of sculpture aims to further develop the professional four-year education undertaken by students at universities. To foster specialists who have advanced knowledge about and outstanding skills in the entire field of molding and sculpture, the curriculum is organized so that students can selectively learn practical skills of molding, wood carving, stone carving, metal carving, terra cotta, etc., through practicums and exercises in addition to lectures. From the second year, students are required to research their selected topic in depth in order to successfully complete their graduation research.
