Overview

The Printmaking Certificate at South Dakota State University is a stand-alone program and may be taken by any student regardless of major or may be selected by Studio Art majors as part of their degree. It is ideal for education and design majors wishing to deepen their understanding of the medium, hone typographic skills, and explore a wide range of materials. Printmaking processes also offer opportunities to bridge technology in design, and develop sensitivities and awareness in all fields of study.

Quick Facts:

Printmakers, as artists of the 21st century, have extensive possibilities to contribute to a wide range of professions related to the discipline. Design, fibers, painting, photography, film, sculpture, and more are closely linked to this tradition.

Students explore a wide variety of technical and conceptual approaches to these mediums, developing personal vocabularies and content through the completion of limited editions, broadsides, portfolio exchanges, serial projects and installations.
