Why study Studio Art BA - Photography Concentration at UB?

The study of art opens the mind to a wealth of possibilities and allows students to discover their unique skills. Artists and designers produce visual expressions of culture that investigate and redefine our world. The art program prepares students for the real world practice of art and design.

Photography is a multifaceted visual, lens-based, discipline. Whether images emanate from darkroom or software; from view camera, Holga, DSLR or cell phone, the photography curriculum at UB is conceptually driven, promoting experimentation and interdisciplinary exploration. Students in the photography concentration will be exploratory creators, motivated and independent young artists open to multiple possibilities of expression. Informed by historical development, contemporary concerns and anticipating the future of photography, students will engage in a critical analysis of form, intention and meaning.

The BA degree focuses on photography within a broad program of general studies that allows the student to pursue a minor or double major in another program.
