Course summary
Our Documentary Photography and Visual Activism degree is the first of its kind in the UK. This programme will help you become a skilled documentary photographer and visual activist, encouraging you to re-evaluate and challenge the history and conventions of photography. You will learn to understand the power structures in photography and how to use them to tell powerful visual stories. The course contemporises traditional and practical skills in documentary and photojournalistic work. We focus on photography as a social process rather than an individual one. You will become an advocate for the causes and social issues you care about most, fully engaging in the subjects that interest you. Throughout your studies, you will be encouraged to collaborate with the local community and think about your role as an active citizen in a democratic society. We pay particular attention to the development of listening skills which allows students to tune into their distinctive and unique sonic voice. Our course embraces photography in its broadest sense, using the latest technology to push the boundaries of what is possible and harness the potential of new digital media. You will also have opportunities to present your work in exhibitions, helping you to build industry connections and showcase your talent. The programme aims to prepare you for a career in documentary photography and visual activism, enabling you to contribute to social change through your art.
