Our society has become increasingly visual within our ever-expanding digital landscape.
Contrary to perception, the photo industry continues to grow and evolve rather than slow down. The tools, soft skills, services, and resources that photographers practice have become indispensable to the countless disciplines it merges with.
The BA in Art: Photography empowers you to not just enter this expanding market but to help shape it. You’ll be prepared for a career informed by your interests, voice, and values, gaining experience and proficiency in a variety of cutting-edge and traditional mediums, tools, and technologies. You’ll join a community of like-minded photographers and mentors, and graduate as an adaptable, visual innovator ready for jobs and careers–some that may not even exist yet.

More About Alumni →
Not only did I receive an excellent education from the department, but I also formed a strong core group of friends. Even after moving away post-graduation, my classmates and professors still follow my work and stay in touch, thanks to the deep personal connections we forged during studio time.
I couldn’t have chosen a better program, and I highly recommend the Photography concentration at Anderson University to anyone interested in pursuing a professional career in photography.
