Students benefit from technical expertise, graphic communication, and self expression. Emphasis is placed on the discovery and development of a personal vision. Through demonstration, critique, lecture, and studio activities the student explores a variety of materials, techniques, and their conceptual implications. The act of photography, from the camera to the darkroom or digital lab, and then to the final print, informs students on many levels of art making. Access to traditional darkrooms, a digital photography lab, daylight processes and various camera technologies allows the student a full range of courses, leading to a thesis in photography.
