This postgraduate course supports and challenges your ideas, creativity and ambitions. Whatever your previous experience, you’ll explore in depth your way of seeing the world and to think through how to use the language of photography to build a portfolio that has excitement and depth.
We welcome photographers from a wide range of backgrounds, as well as those who have studied photography at undergraduate level. We are looking for passion and a commitment to exploring and questioning the medium of photography.
Lectures, group critiques, one-to-one tutorials, field trips and gallery visits make up the core of the teaching practice. All classes are delivered on a single day per week, thus allowing for work, travel and other commitments. Assessment is 100% by coursework.
Our modules guide students towards recognising potential themes and exploring them using an extended range of approaches and techniques. In addition, an extensive range of workshops will cover such disciplines as high-level digital studio work, moving image and video editing, book production, black and white darkroom work and alternative process techniques.
A final extended major project gives scope to fully develop your own ideas, informed by previous experimentation and investigation in the earlier modules.
