WHY CHOOSE THIS COURSE?
Learn from people who are 'shaking up photographic education’ (WIRED Magazine).
Work with innovators: 'breaking new ground for photographers' (EU Parliament TV).
Be part of our networked and distributed approaches: 'amazing', 'opens up the whole process of how you teach photography at a university' (P2PU Exec. Dir. Philipp Schmidt).
WHAT WILL I LEARN?Our students are taken seriously as motivated and committed media-producers and peers. We have built a creative environment in which experimental and innovative ways of working are encouraged and supported. You’ll be a part of an approach to teaching and learning that values collaboration and live practical engagement over broadcast instruction and rote-learning.
Our explicit aim is to foster innovative and sustainable responses to the seismic shifts currently redefining the post-digital photographic landscape.
