The Jewelry Design Program offers a well-rounded education for those looking to enter the world 
of jewelry design. It begins with a solid foundation in jewelry history, materials, and technical 
skills, allowing students to gain an understanding of the craft’s essentials. As students progress, 
they explore both traditional and contemporary design techniques, refining their ability to create 
unique pieces. The program encourages creativity and conceptual thinking, guiding students 
through the process of developing a cohesive jewelry collection from idea to presentation, 
supported by mood boards that capture their vision. Alongside the design aspect, students are 
introduced to digital tools, learning how to effectively translate their designs into digital 
illustrations using industry-standard software. In addition to design, the program focuses on the 
business side of jewelry making, offering insight into how the industry operates, from 
understanding market trends to pricing and sales strategies. Branding and marketing are also key 
components, with students learning how to establish a strong brand identity and develop 
marketing strategies to promote their work and stand out in the competitive jewelry market.
