What schools in Asia and the Mid-East have great Visual Art Departments?

Things like multiple electives offered, good supplies, a kiln, graphic arts programs in their computer labs... Ok, they don't have to have all of those things, but at least most of them.

Thats going to be a hard list. The majority of ISs dont schedule individual electives. They schedule grades/classes for art, and its up to the teacher to decide that class.

1st tier school are better resourced then lower tier schools.

Only very large schools have an on site kiln, a number of them use an outside . kiln, or rent one. Ceramics is one of the most expensive 3-D mediums for a school to have, and some just dont do it.

Most schools have digital graphic arts, top tier schools use Adobe CS, lower tier schools go with open source free programs, and google apps. Google Scape is a very popular 3-D modeling application.
