Photography
To be a photographer today is to place yourself in the center of a world where image-making possibilities are endless and where you can decide when to embrace tradition and when to reject it.
Photography is a primary form of communication in today’s visual world. In the Photography program, students will explore the infinite possibilities in contemporary image-making by building a strong foundation in analog and digital techniques and lighting strategies. Our curriculum balances practical skills with theory and critical analysis to enable students to develop a personal style and perspective. Courses examine photography’s broad range of contexts in society as well as the ethics and personal responsibility of photographers. Students explore how the language of photography can be a tool for social justice and cultural analysis.
