The modern world is full of imagery and taking photographs has become part of everyday life. However, understanding how to interpret these images and creating them as an extended body of work are key for a successful career within the photography industry. The BA (Hons) Photography degree at University Centre St Helens will develop your passion for photography and provide you with a good balance of theory and practice. It covers a whole host of specialist disciplines within the field of photographic image making, using both analogue and digital processes and a hybrid approach to using both. The degree has been designed to develop your technical photographic knowledge and critical understanding needed to become a successful photographer. Students have the opportunity to exhibit their work at end of year exhibitions across Liverpool and the surrounding area. You also will have the opportunity to compete in competitions such as the D&AD awards and the Association of Photographers (AOP) Student Awards 2018.
