SCAD provides jewelry students with the curriculum and resources to engage in this timeless tradition that refects cultures, religions, and self-expression. They develop an eye for the fnest detail as they work with precious metals and stones. SCAD students design and produce works within a 13,800-square-foot studio environment that puts top-ofthe-line technology at their fngertips. Students utilize resources that include two laser welders, an induction casting machine, two Orion arc welding systems, a BB70 engraver, a microscope system, dual handpiece micro-motor systems, Solidscape 3Z Pro wax printers, Roland JWX-10 milling machines, and Wacom Cintiq tablets. Software resources include Adobe Creative Cloud Complete, Matrix Digital Goldsmith, KeyShot, and an authorized RhinoFabStudio, which enables students to earn Rhino certifcation before graduation.

Jewelry students and alumni showcase their work at university-sponsored events, including SCAD FASHION shows and the SCAD Jewelry Trunk Show. Many jewelry students develop a following of collectors while at SCAD thanks to the university’s retail gallery shopSCAD. Their signature styles have won Halstead Grants and International Lab of MittelModa awards, earned features in British Vogue and Vanity Fair, and dazzled at New York City Jewelry Week. Jewelry students take their ideas to global companies through SCADpro —  The Limited, McGee Group, Michael Kors Watches, and many others — that place students within authentic work environments. Alumni apply these professional practices to land jobs at powerhouses like Brooks Brothers, Fossil, Kendra Scott, and Tory Burch — or start their own lines and businesses.

Future gems. SCAD students graduate ready to shine within a $275 billion industry.
