Course summary

The course allows you to undertake advanced study in a wide range of areas including advertising, documentary, editorial, fashion, portrait and fine art photography. By a combined approach of practice, theory and professionalism, the course will provide a challenging and stimulating environment in which you're able to develop to your full potential, with the aim of becoming a practitioner at the forefront of the profession. You're encouraged to make industrial links across a broad range of organisations relevant to your chosen professional specialism. Using these links, you'll learn to manage and exceed client expectations through the application of your new academic understanding to the production of inventive saleable work. MA Photography course is a balance of art and commerce and is founded on the assertion that photography is a powerful form of communication that potentially connects with an audience of millions. The course offers the opportunity to make professional work within, or crossing genres, whether it’s for publication, or the gallery. What defines it as professional, is that it's conceived and created with a specific audience in mind and is conscious of how meaning is affected by socio-political criteria. The course is designed for ambitious photography graduates, or experienced photographers who wish to develop their knowledge and expertise in order to reach the very top of their field. We look for individuals with a passion for the subject and who are willing to take risks, and in doing so, push themselves to new heights. From expressing challenging, thought-provoking opinions on the complexities of our world, to promoting commercial ventures, the course provides fertile ground for creative thinkers to make a lasting impact and build careers, whether in the realm of gallery exhibitions or publication.
