Photography
Photography is a medium of visual expression encompassing various styles, techniques,
and applications. From commercial to artistic, photography offers students a chance
to learn the skills necessary to create compelling visual content that can be used
for a variety of purposes. As an academic field of study, photography is not just
about learning how to take pictures but rather should be seen as an interdisciplinary
field that covers a vast range of topics, including composition, editing, history,
and even ethics.
