Photography is concerned with producing creative artists and professional photographers who are fluent in a wide variety of photographic productions, techniques, and critical concerns.
The photography program is dedicated to providing students with the skills, conceptual understanding, historical knowledge, technical expertise, and studio experience necessary to either enter a graduate program or further pursue a career as a photographer in fine art and/or professional areas.
The department’s very broad and diverse curriculum covers subjects from historical to digital photo processes within the context of contemporary aesthetic and cultural theories.
