BA(Hons) Photography is based in the city of Bristol, a vibrant arts and media community that will challenge and inspire students. The course offers a vibrant, collaborative environment, modern facilities, supportive workshop instruction and expert input, all underpinned by theory and critique.
Study at Bower Ashton Studios, part of UWE's City Campus, where exceptional facilities and resources include industry standard digital media studios.
Explore traditional tools and the latest technology in production and fabrication workshops. Develop creativity and the high-level practical skills needed to become a successful photographer. Work across all areas of the discipline, from editorial and documentary to fashion, advertising and fine art.
Staff will encourage students to transform their broad-based photographic practice into an individual visual style. On graduation, students will have a unique and compelling body of work for the marketplace.
Work to briefs set and assessed by external individuals and organizations, including photographers, filmmakers, publishers, clothing labels, product designers, theatre groups, musicians and festivals. Build a CV with work experience, and access to job opportunities, throughout the course.
UWE's partnerships with Bristol Photography Festival and IC Visual Lab, two highly reputable Bristol-based photography organisations with national and international influence, will provide students with a wide range of work experience placements and live briefs to work on.
