Photography, BFA


Return to {$returnto_text} Return to: Majors & Programs by Department

The Bachelor of Fine Arts in Photography is a rigorous, in-depth degree choice for students who wish to pursue serious photography, in any of photography’s many forms. The BFA program does not establish fixed, formal concentrations. Instead, students pursuing either a BFA or a BA in Photography take a broad range of required courses. These courses are intended to educate well-rounded, visually literate, technically versatile, and highly accomplished photographers. Each student pursuing a BFA will then design an area of specialization by completing a number of advanced electives. Generally speaking, most of these self-designed areas of concentration fall into several broad categories: commercial and studio photography, documentary photography and photojournalism, fine-art photography, advanced digital imaging, and new media. Internships, student shows and off-campus exhibitions, and publication provide exciting opportunities to begin careers in a variety of contexts. The capstone courses are dedicated to helping students produce a final portfolio of work at a truly professional level.
