Course summary
At Arts University Bournemouth, the BA (Hons) Photography course offers a rigorous and expansive education designed to foster creative excellence and professional development. This programme is built on a foundation that recognises and nurtures the individual aspirations of each student, encouraging a journey that goes beyond traditional boundaries to explore new, often unpredictable, and challenging possibilities in photographic practice. At the core of our BA (Hons) Photography course is a conceptually driven curriculum that actively responds to the expanded field of contemporary photography, enhanced by the rapid technological advances shaping the medium. Our approach is deeply rooted in the belief that photographers must not only master technical skills but also develop a robust understanding of the cultural, historical, and contemporary contexts that influence visual culture. To this end, you'll engage in experimental practices supported by rigorous research methods and theoretical discourses. BA (Hons) Photography encourages students to engage with contemporary photography in an individually creative and experimental manner, supported by outstanding analogue and digital resources. This course is visually led, but you'll learn how to place your practice within a historical and contemporary context, and define its audience. You'll be introduced to a range of technical processes, from 19th century alternative printing techniques in our traditional darkrooms to digital still and moving image capture, and post-production in our state-of-the-art lighting studios and digital suites. You'll also be able to borrow an extensive range of analogue and digital kit from our professional standard technical store.
