The course is aimed at students who have completed a first degree in photography and who wish to study the subject in depth. Many students who have studied with us at postgraduate level have had experience in industry and wish to return to education to pursue more personal lines of enquiry.
Course Content

You will negotiate a programme of study with a tutor that is then realised via self-set aims and objectives that have been negotiated with, and approved by, the course team. The study is carried out during the course by means of academic research work, practical visual experimental work and specific project work. This approach promotes a wide variety of individually generated investigations within the student group.

Study is supported by workshops, tutorials, group seminars and the core lecture programme. You will be allocated a programme tutor who has expertise in the core area of your study.
Attendance

Assessment is both formative and summative and will involve presentation of work at each award stage. The Postgraduate Certificate and Postgraduate Diploma stages require written submissions to support the practical outcomes.
Entry Requirements

Either a first or second class Honours degree in a related subject, equivalent qualifications or experience. Interviews are held throughout the year and potential applications are welcome to make an appointment to visit the Faculty.
Careers

Graduates of the course would be expected to find work in the creative industries. While most students may follow a career as a documentary, fashion or magazine photographer, many work in advertising and some move into film and television.
