Program description
You can advance your career in jewelry design by enrolling in a semester-long jewelry design program and gaining the knowledge and experience necessary to design and create jewelry.
Making jewelry is more than just a skilled trade; it's also an art form that demands the artist to conceptualize and then materialize a vision. Jewels are more than just pretty things to look at; they are also 'records' that reveal information about the society and culture of the period they were created, as well as the state of the art at the time.
The course of study is mapped out to aid in your comprehension and acquisition of a working knowledge of jewelry artistry, beginning with cultural conceptions relating to the history of jewelry and proceeding through jewelry manufacturing processes, methodology, and the designing of gems.
Program structure
Throughout the Semester, the theoretical lessons are alternated with laboratory activities, through which you learn to manage your creativity and identity.
- Style and History of Art and Costume
- Design Methods
- Technical Drawing
- History of Design
- Modeling Techniques
- Graphic Design
- Jewelry Design

About the university

Since 1966, we have been the largest Higher Education Network in the creative area to keep both a worldwide perspective and a strongly Italian cultural matrix.
Our educational strategy has evolved over time, but at its core remains the same: we mix theoretical study with hands-on experience and the expertise of working experts. One of the things we emphasize in our classes is always thinking ahead, in the here and now. We are a diverse, multidisciplinary institution that views design as a tool for social transformation.
Among the many international academic networks in which we participate are Cumulus, Elia, and WDO, just to name a few.
Campuses
In the 1970s and 1980s, we expanded to Rome (1973), Cagliari (1984), and Turin (1989) in Italy.
Beginning in 1994 with the Madrid campus and continuing on to Barcelona in 2002, Spain's modern era began in the 1990s.
The Group also spread internationally, establishing a presence in Sao Paulo, Brazil, in 2005, and then in Venice, Italy, in 2007, Florence, Italy, in 2009, and Como, Italy, in 2009, with the acquisition of the Aldo Galli Academy of Fine Arts. The Group expanded its footprint in Brazil in 2014 by renovating the Cassino da Urca and opening a campus in Rio de Janeiro; in 2020, the Group will expand its presence in Spain by purchasing the Centro Superior de Diseo Kunsthal in Bilbao.
