Show ten people the same photograph and you’re likely to get ten different interpretations. Because we all look at life through the lens of our own experiences. But the fundamental mission remains the same. To capture forever a moment in time – historic or random, joyous or poignant – that communicates an idea, an emotion, or a point of view as nobody ever quite has before. In our Photography program, you’ll explore the profession from all angles – artistic, technological, business and just plain fun – as you learn to look at your world in a whole new way. And whether you end up taking the pictures or taking them to the next level, you’ll be preparing for a career where you love what you do.
