During two-semester studies in the area of Photography, students become prepared for defining a creative role of the medium of photography in contemporary arts and culture, as experts in this area (future educators) and/or as independent artists. Students have the possibility to select and focus on a given area of photographic activity which interests them in particular, and they are encouraged to develop their own critical thinking, creativity and professional originality directed toward discovering and formulating their own potentials. Defined thematic clusters and lectures underscore and expand the basis of theoretical knowledge in the area of visual arts and culture, as well as various activities, the basic features of which include analogue and digital images and imaging systems. The process of analyzing the acquired knowledge and operable abilities, particularly those pertaining to contemporary technologies of recording by light and digital processing of photographic image using appropriate software, critical reviews of one’s own and other people’s creative activity, as well as regular sessions with defined topics help students to develop individual viewpoints and to position themselves and their own creative activity within broader historical, theoretical and contemporary visual contexts. An independent exhibition of artistically defined cycle on a given topic, as well as a written theoretical paper mark the climax of the study program.
