Students explore photo-based imagery as personal and cultural expression. The program offers students both the intensive focus of an arts curriculum while demanding a serious and broad grounding in the liberal arts.

Our faculty and staff consist of artists, commercial and documentary photographers, designers, critics, historians, and scholars, offer a wide range of perspectives. Alumni from the department go on to exhibit their work in galleries and museums; publish in national newspapers and magazines; pursue graduate degrees; become art critics; work as documentary photographers and photojournalists, filmmakers, graphic designers, web designers, picture editors, and educators; work in computer graphics and multimedia; and work in museums, educational, and community art settings. The course offerings are extensive and varied in both the studio and critical studies area. Working with faculty advisors, students tailor a program that is best suited to their interests and goals. The curriculum of studio and critical studies courses is aimed to teach students how to think critically, to see and to find their individual vision in order to adapt and excel in a constantly evolving field. “Photography and Imaging provides a rigorous academic environment where critical thinkers, both art and documentary image-makers, can thrive. The students here cultivate their skills and nourish their creativity in a small community where studio practice is immersed in liberal studies. Our graduates are connected to the many worlds of photography and imaging, including photojournalism, art photography, archiving, curating, commercial photography, advertising, academia and publishing. To study photography in New York City is to be at the center of a metropolis where the photo lens becomes your insight into visual experience, including neighborhoods such as the fashion, financial, or meatpacking districts; galleries and museums; individuals; urban life; nightlife; theater; and Central Park. Students explore photo-based imagery as personal and cultural expression.” -Deborah Willis, Ph.D., Chair Become a Fan to stay up-to-date with Current and Upcoming Exhibitions, Scholarships, Art Forums, Open Crits, ISO Magazine, and more!
