\r\n
The Photography major at GVSU offers student-centered  production and theory courses aimed at developing liberally educated  image-makers able to adapt and thrive in a variety of professional and creative  environments. Students engage the medium from historical, theoretical and  sociological points of view in order to become thoughtful about the way images  operate as cultural objects, are read by audiences, and impact the world around  them.\r\n
 \r\n
As with any Art, the mastery of photography requires an  understanding of the medium’s visual language, proficiency of technique,  intellectual curiosity and personal vision, as well as dedication and practice.  Students in the photography program integrate liberal and professional  education, combining technique with an understanding of visual communication and  ideas that emanate from an authentic sense of self. The individuality and  integrity of the photographer are essential grounds for success as an artist and  the self-governance requisite of any professional.\r\n
 \r\n
These images represent the growth of students as they  complete the program, from their beginning in Photography 1 to advanced  independent work culminating in the Senior Thesis images and  paper.\r\n
