Studio Art: Photography concentration<br />
Bachelor <strong>of</strong> Fine Arts<br />
The Photography concentration is pr<strong>of</strong>essionally geared to prepare the next generation<br />
<strong>of</strong> photographic image makers with broad knowledge and experience <strong>of</strong> photographic<br />
techniques and concepts. The concentration will prepare students for careers in photo<br />
journalism, fine art photography, and commercial photography, or for further study in<br />
graduate school. Our concentration is notable for its highly individualized instruction<br />
made possible <strong>by</strong> small class sizes and dedicated faculty. Students enjoy working in our<br />
state-<strong>of</strong>-the-art photo facilities located in Reisman Hall. In addition to studio courses<br />
such as Studio Photography, Alternative Processes, Color Photo, On Assignment, and<br />
Large Format Photography, students take Digital Imaging, Portfolio Preparation, and<br />
complete a Photography Internship. Each student also completes a year-long senior<br />
project during which he or she works closely with a carefully chosen pr<strong>of</strong>essional<br />
mentor who is experienced in the area <strong>of</strong> photographic specialization most relevant to<br />
each student‘s interest. Many students participate in study abroad opportunities. Our<br />
curriculum encourages students to integrate their photography interests with<br />
interdisciplinary liberal arts studies, as well as various minors that may complement their<br />
interests and provide additional career opportunities. Our goal, which is unique among<br />
colleges and universities, is for students to develop comprehensive/interdisciplinary<br />
knowledge <strong>of</strong> the arts while also gaining the tools to market their skills in today‘s<br />
competitive global economy.<br />
