Photography Minor
How will the Photgraphy minor enhance my degree?
The photography minor is designed to give you experience with a range of camera formats - from a 35mm format up to a 4x5 studio view camera, including digital capture. The minor will help you gain experience in a wide range of pictorial photographic applications.

What does the minor emphasize?

What kind of photgraphy courses are included in the minor?
Studio courses are technically rigorous, with extensive use of professional photographic tools and equipment. Advanced-level classes concentrate on creative and conceptual approaches to the photographic medium, and help to develop your own personal responses to photographic projects and assignments.
