Foundation Degrees are new, modern higher education qualifications that combine the needs of industry with academic skills. The aim of FdA Professional Photography is to equip you with the skills and knowledge required to work in the photographic industry. This means the programme has a distinctly vocational flavour with the focus being very much on the practical elements of the field, but also allows you learn how to contextualise your images.

Course content will develop your digital skills to an advanced level, and you’ll learn to use a wide range of different cameras and formats. In the lighting workshops you’ll learn to work with studio flash, on location, and mixed lighting. You’ll also develop basic design skills for website creation. In fact, you’ll cover all areas of professional practice.

Specialist workshops and lectures in areas such as fashion, portrait and product photography, provide a grounding in technical aspects as well as bringing you up to speed with current trends. Illustrated talks will bring you closer to the work of a number of practitioners working internationally at a high level.

Throughout your studies you’ll enjoy the support and guidance of our highly experienced teaching staff, and by the end of the course you’ll be expected to produce a high-quality digital and hard copy portfolio to demonstrate just how far you’ve come. Graduates of FdA Professional Photography may transfer to the third year of the BA (Hons) Photography.

The Photography Program takes a broad-based approach, engaging students in the most contemporary practices, as well as in the traditions and historical structures from which those practices have evolved.

The curriculum provides a technical foundation in analog and digital imaging alike and introduces the critical skills and theoretical insights necessary for students to manifest their creative visions. Our faculty—all professional artists—represents a diverse range of styles and approaches to the medium. Students graduate with the skills necessary to pursue careers as exhibiting artists and to work in most photography-related professions.

The program’s facilities enable work in black-and-white, color, and alternative processes on large and small scales alike. The facilities on the Oakland campus are staffed more than 90 hours a week and include two large black-and-white darkrooms, 12 individual darkrooms for color printing, a 42-inch RA 4 color processor, Photography Program–specific high-end digital workstations, a black-and-white- and color-compatible mural darkroom, an alternative-processes lab, a dedicated lighting studio, and much more.

Cameras and equipment are available to advanced students for off-campus use. Other resources include a gallery for student exhibitions, guest lectures by emerging and high-profile photographers alike, and a visiting-artist program.

Students pursue internships with photography studios, museums, galleries, major newspapers and magazines, and film production companies. Many alumni have become professional photographers, and several have been included in such national exhibitions as the Whitney Biennial. Our graduates typically enter top-tier graduate programs.

THE OVERVIEW:
Light. Chemistry. Observation.
Behold the beholder. You see emotion, intrigue, brilliance and energy in everyday surroundings and moments, and you capture them and their meaning for others. Photography, too, is a pencil for the artist, revealing pattern and form, detail and composition. Photography allows the artist to both observe and comment on life with an extremely powerful tool.

Examples of Photography student work

There is equal emphasis in MIAD’s Photography Program between the technical and the conceptual. You will explore digital imaging and the darkroom, learn how images can be manipulated and how photographers are able to extend their vision to wider expanses of expression. As you advance in the program, you will have the flexibility to construct your major with emphases in areas of personal interest, such as alternative print processes, expanded scale, large format camera, commercial applications and color.

As a senior, you will intern in preparation for your entry into a professional career. MIAD’s Photography graduates find success in many careers: some work as fine artists, while others choose to work commercially in advertising, portraiture, photojournalism or industrial photography.
