They gain valuable experience teaching at Temple and other area institutions, conduct research internationally through competitive fellowships and departmental awards, participate in internships at the Philadelphia Museum of Art and related institutions, and engage in curating and art writing.
“Graduate Art History at Tyler is a dynamic opportunity,” says Department Chairperson Dr. Gerald Silk. “It’s a high-quality program in which students from the United States and abroad study with world-class scholars.” Coursework includes Mediterranean and European art, including Bronze Age Aegean, Ancient Roman, Medieval, Byzantine and Coptic, Northern and Southern Renaissance and Baroque, Modern Italian and French, as well as Global Modern and Contemporary American works.
ART HISTORY MAThe MA degree prepares students for futuregraduate study and for arts-related careers.The program consists of 30 graduate credits ofcoursework, and requires reading competencyin two foreign languages, a comprehensive examination, and a thesis that displays original research.
ART HISTORY PHDThe PhD program prepares students for highereducation and curatorial positions or for jobsrequiring advanced specialized study. Studentsconduct original research and undertakechallenging scholarly projects. Candidacy isgranted upon passing written and oral qualifying examinations and approval of the dissertation proposal. The degree is awarded after acceptance and defense of the dissertation. Students may apply directly to the PhD from an undergraduate program.
FINE ARTS ADMINISTRATIONGraduate students interested in careers inarts administration combine art history MAcoursework with graduate classes in the FoxSchool of Business and Management.
MArch ARCHITECTURE The MArch encourages design professionals to think critically about architecture as both a spatial and social practice, and to foster responsible engagement with contemporary society, culture, technology and materials. Over its 35-year history, the Department of Architecture has garnered respect in the professional communities of Philadelphia and the mid-Atlantic region, and the programs have evolved to reflect the ever-changing study and practice of the artform.
Research is conducted in three interconnected clusters—Infrastructure (Site, Territory, Environment), Advanced Emerging Technologies, and Design Democracies. Infrastructure examines the implications of development initiatives both large and small (e.g. highways, energy systems, communication networks, housing, industry, education, etc.) as well as issues of environmental sustainability. Advanced Emerging Technologies focuses on the importance of rapidly evolving techniques, processes and materials, as well as the global mandate for ecological design solutions. Lastly, Design Democracies poses questions about the relationship between architecture and politics, and how democracy influences design.
The program includes four design studios, or three studios and a thesis, as well as three research seminars, four electives, and additional courses in structure, environmental control systems and professional practice. Study abroad at Temple Rome is encouraged. The MArch degree is recognized by the National Architectural Accrediting Board (NAAB). Students in the program are eligible to participate in the National Council of Architectural Registration Board (NCARB) Intern Development Program, and are eligible to take the architectural licensing examination offered in each state, through which they may become registered architects.
INTENSIVE DESIGN TRACK

MEd ART EDUCATIONTyler’s Master of Education with a Major in Art is perfect for teachers who want to develop a specialization in art, or practicing artists who want to add teaching credentials to their portfolios. This intermingling of students with complementary goals creates a stimulating synergy in MEd classes, while the emphasis on research and studio practice keeps the program current.
Attractively positioned at a first-rate art school within an excellent research university, the program seeks out a diverse range of candidates who are committed to community-oriented work and who welcome an intellectually rigorous curriculum of study.
Coursework includes Art Education, Art History and a studio component. Three courses (Art Education Research, Contemporary Issues in Art Education and History of Art Education) are required, while others may be selected from Tyler’s rich assortment of studio and graduate-
level electives. In-depth studies are encouraged, so students may take as many as three studio courses in a chosen discipline, from painting and printmaking to glasswork and more.
TEACHING CERTIFICATION
MEd candidates may pursue teaching certification coursework concurrently with their graduate studies. Depending on educational background, an additional 14–17 credits in the professional sequence includes coursework in educational psychology, education, art education methods, an internship and student teaching in art. The MEd with Teaching Certification preparation program of 44–47 credits, along with successful completion of the NTE and Art Education Examination, provides all of the requirements for Pennsylvania State Certification in Art, kindergarten through twelfth grade. The Pennsylvania Teaching Certification is awarded to United States citizens only.
COMMUNITY ARTS PRACTICES
Connecting students with community organizations, schools and artists in North Philadelphia,
Tyler’s 4-course Graudate Certificate in Community Arts provides access to university courses, after-school workshops, school residencies, intergenerational forums and local exhibitions and performances. Field internships and community involvement contribute to career preparation for graduating students.

MFA FIBERS & MATERIAL STUDIES
“Tyler’s MFA in Fibers & Material Studies program has a strong fine art emphasis and an unusually interdisciplinary approach. Fibers MFAs study with professors in ceramics, glass, printmaking, art history, painting, drawing, sculpture, photography—they are welcome everywhere,” says Crafts Department Chairperson Nicholas Kripal.
Led by a faculty of emerging artists and established professionals, the program emphasizes conceptual creativity over technical procedure and form. As such, applicant portfolios reflecting strong ideas and originality in any art discipline weigh more heavily than previous experience in the field. Students work in individual studios within an intense, cooperative environment typical of graduate study at Tyler. Over two years, students develop a strong, focused body of work to be exhibited in a solo show at the completion of their degree.
The Fibers & Material Studies area is equipped with a computer lab for silk screening and digital printing, as well as a computerized loom, state-of-the-art design software, and a large-format printer built for 46-inch wide bolts of cloth. Students are encouraged to utilize the resources of the city—the renowned Fabric Workshop and Museum, The Philadelphia Museum of Art, and other libraries, museums and cultural institutions—to spark ideas and research topics related to their individual projects.
CERAMICS
Small and extremely selective, Tyler’s MFA program in Ceramics works closely with the Glass and Fibers programs. “The definition of all three of these crafts has changed so much over the past three decades,” explains Crafts Department Chairperson Nicholas Kripal. “It’s very interdisciplinary, with students creating work that comes from within the tradition but redefines it. We have students doing large-scale unfired clay installations, site-specific pieces and video projects. We look for really innovative work, and we get it from students who come to us because they’ve heard about Tyler as ‘the stretching school.’”
GLASS
“We are looking for students who work with glass as a conceptual medium and are redefining this material in a contemporary context,” says Program Head Sharyn O’Mara.
“As a result, the work is highly experimental, taking the form of objects, installations, performance and video.”
Graduate students work within an intensive studio environment alongside diverse and highly accomplished faculty. The curriculum is comprised of studio, research and seminar sessions, as well as peer reviews with other disciplines. Tyler Glass is a tight-knit community housed in a 10,000 square foot state-of-the-art facility featuring a hot shop with two 530-pound day tanks, four benches, four glory holes and 10 dedicated annealers. The program also boasts a 710-pound casting furnace with seven annealers, a 16-kiln casting room with a 1-ton crane for large molds, a cold shop with Merker and Czech lathes, and four flameworking stations. All graduate students have private studios.
MFA CERAMICS/GLASS
Tyler’s MFA programs in Ceramics and Glass draw students whose curiosity and vision can’t be contained by the conventions of their art form. Students with a record of accomplishment in either area, who want to push the boundaries of their medium or fuse its qualities with other disciplines, will thrive at Tyler.

MFA GRAPHIC & INTERACTIVE DESIGN
Tyler’s MFA in Graphic and Interactive Design is an intensive two-year immersion in the practice of design. The program is highly selective, seeking self-motivated students with strong visual skills whose work demonstrates conceptual depth and experimentation.Emphasizing the role of designer as author and entrepreneur, the program frees students to define the content and form of large-scale, semester-long projects in a wide variety of forms, including books, posters, web sites, folios, games, clocks, interactive narratives, and wearable and environmental design. Extensive research, writing, image-making and editing are also integral to the process.
Advanced-level elective courses are offered in a variety of design topics such as art direction, corporate design, packaging, advertising, publishing and interactive design. The work of Tyler’s MFA students is highly visible in national and international design publications and competitions, and graduates are actively recruited in the field. Whatever professional path our designers embark on, the quality and rigor of the curriculum prepares them to succeed.
MFA METALS/JEWELRY/CAD-CAM
For the past forty-five years, Tyler’s graduate program in Metals and Jewelry has been a leader in the field. Widely known for its emphasis on CAD-CAM as a new medium and its outstanding technical facilities, the program targets four areas—artistic development, preparation for college-level teaching, designing for industry and developing entrepreneurial skills.
Each of these aspects is addressed over the course of the program through seminars, one-on-one meetings with faculty and continuous exploration in the graduate metals studio. All students share a passionate curiosity about the unique characteristics of materials, and the
desire to pioneer new attitudes, technologies and processes that will lead the field in new directions. The comprehensive curriculum highlights all aspects of jewelry-making and the history of metalsmithing as well.
Students interested in pursuing teaching gain valuable experience in closely mentored assistantships and train in relevant technologies such as web page design and digital photography. Students also engage with the art community at Tyler and beyond as part of the Graduate thesis show, which is the final requirement for their MFA degree.

MFA PAINTING
As one of the top ten programs in the country, Tyler’s rigorous MFA in Painting shapes professional artists. Graduates go on to make significant contributions to the medium as creators, curators and gallerists.
The Critical Dialogues Lecture Series is central to the program, bringing artists, curators and critics to campus each week for a public lecture followed by student critiques in painting, drawing, and sculpture. During the fall semester, students visit galleries and studios every other Saturday as part of the Painting Seminar course. Additionally, Painting MFAs are encouraged to spend one of their two years abroad at Temple Rome, or to spend a summer though the Rome Graduate Seminar in Aesthetics and Cultural Studies.
These experiences are designed to provide students with an understanding of the broad cultural and historical context in which art is made and experienced. MFA painters at Tyler have received some of the most distinguished awards in the field, including the Jacob Javits Fellowship, Dedalus Foundation Grant, Jack Kent Cook Fellowship, Joan Mitchell MFA Grant and Skowhegan Fellowship.
MFA PHOTOGRAPHY
Tyler’s MFA in photography was the first program of its kind in the United States, as well as the first program to offer classes in color photography. The curriculum stresses a balance between knowledge of historical processes, exploration of new technologies and a solid critical understanding of photography in an intimate creative environment.
Through studio and seminar sessions, MFA students explore new technical and conceptual approaches to their craft, and become actively involved in the broader art community by curating exhibitions of established and emerging artists’ work. With close ties to the Philadelphia Museum of Art, the Philadelphia Print Center and other arts institutions, graduate students are connected to their peers and participate in a dialog on the medium. MFA students go on to pursue careers as curators, teachers, photo editors, commercial photographers, gallery owners, fine arts administrators and studio artists.
Whatever path graduates choose, the Tyler MFA in Photography provides the technical, conceptual and critical skills necessary to enter the field at the highest professional level.

MFA SCULPTURE
Ranked as one of the top nine programs in the country, Tyler’s MFA in Sculpture is internationally recognized for the intensity of its curriculum and the caliber of its students. The Sculpture program shares a close association with the Painting program and encourages the fusion of various mediums and practices including performance, sound and video with more traditional object-oriented work.
MFA students have year-round, 24-hour access to their own personal studios, as well as the wood shop, metal shop, casting area, digital media lab and audio video equipment. Each
week, the Critical Dialogue Lecture Series hosts influential artists, critics and curators, exposing students to a stimulating variety of creative perspectives and providing private studio critiques with selected guests.
In addition to all on-campus resources, MFA candidates regularly visit Philadelphia’s many historic and contemporary museums, galleries and artists’ studios. Students are also encouraged to spend a summer abroad through the Rome Graduate Seminar in Aesthetics and Cultural Studies.
MFA PRINTMAKING
With an emphasis on interdisciplinary work, Tyler’s Printmaking MFA encourages students to experiment with photography or sculpture, and to combine the skills and aesthetics of those programs with their own. Tyler’s graduate printmakers explore a broad range of techniques, including traditional printmaking disciplines, photo processes, digital print media, large-scale printmaking and 3D installation.
MFA students have 24-hour access to a fully-equipped print studio, as well as three large undergraduate studios and semi-private graduate studios. Students also have the option of spending up to two semesters working abroad in the print
studios at Temple’s Rome campus. Faculty work closely with students and invests in their career progress through interview coaching, career development workshops and professional portfolio guidance.
“Asking questions about your work and being willing to examine those questions intensely is the basis of our program. Over the course of two years, this process will yield challenges as well as exciting developments in your work,” says Professor Hester Stinnett. “In Printmaking, we support this effort by keeping our classes small and focusing on each individual artist in our program.”

Since 1966, Temple University’s Rome program at the Villa Caproni has offered graduate students an extraordinary opportunity to live, work and study in one of the most important cities in the history of Western Civilization. Outstanding faculty, staff and facilities attract students from colleges and universities throughout the United States and abroad. Graduate students accepted into the MFA programs in Painting, Photography, Printmaking and Sculpture may apply to spend a year in Rome.
SUMMER PROGRAMS IN ROME
The Graduate Seminar in Aesthetics and Cultural Studies designed to bring together the disciplines of aesthetics and cultural studies. In addition, Tyler offers a Collaborative Design Workshop in Rome, a course geared toward Graphic & Interactive Design students who are interested in immersing themselves in the culture of Rome and producing an in-depth design project in the form of an arts and culture magazine about Rome.
ARCHITECTURE STUDY ABROAD PROGRAMS
Tyler's Architecture Department’s study abroad option in Rome has been enormously successful in providing architecture students with the opportunity to live in a non-American urban environment whose rich architectural heritage blends and layers over two thousand years of construction. In addition, Architecture majors have the opportunity to share studio space with art students from many other disciplines and many other colleges. Study at Temple Rome is strongly encouraged during spring semesters of the two-year Master of Architecture program.

MISSION STATEMENT
The Tyler School of Art educates, motivates and inspires individuals who will enter society as artists, architects, art historians, design-ers and educators with the highest aspirations for achievement, producing innovative work that is publicly presented and critically considered. Founded upon the ideals of progressive education emphasizing exposure to a variety of experiences before selecting a major, attention to each student’s mastery of technique, and the shaping of a personal artistic vision within the framework of a research university, the objective of the Tyler School of Art is to create an engaging and critical environment that:
> promotes cutting edge curriculum initiatives through a broad spectrum of philosophical and aesthetic approaches;
> through its relationship with Temple University, provides access to students who otherwise would not consider art and design as a career path;
> fosters interdisciplinary insights and collaborations promoting artistic and intellectual freedom, creativity and experimentation in a diverse and heterogeneous environment;
> demonstrates to students, through the faculty’s own practice and scholarship, that the study of art and design is process-oriented and research-based;
> interacts with a broad spectrum of local, national and international artists, scholars and communities in the exploration of art and its role in society; and
> builds upon our outreach to the Temple University community, to the local neighborhoods and to the cultural organizations in the region.
