MFA students in sculpture come from all over the US and occasionally from other countries. Students in sculpture have most traditional sculpture making equipment available for their use and are encouraged to experiment with the non-traditional sculpture applications.

Most graduate students have the opportunity to receive a GTA at some point in their three years. This teaching experience offers a valuable experience for future employment. Full GTA's consist of teaching 2 courses per semester, including a tuition waver and a salary of $3,750 per semester. Other teaching opportunities become available on occasion.

Students are encouraged to exhibit their work in a variety of venues and to attend conferences and workshops off campus.

Some of the alums of the program are John Hachmeister, The University of Kansas, Pearl Hansen, Wayne State College, Ken Wagner, North East Nebraska Community College.
