About the Minor

The Minor in Photography for Non-Art Majors provides students with experience in photographic processes in both traditional and digital technologies. They explore historic and contemporary issues within lens-based media with equal emphasis on the science and craft of photography and on critical thinking and conceptual development. Our minor also expands students' understanding of how photography can intersect with other fields and allows them to develop additional skills that complement the marketable competencies and knowledge they acquire in their majors. 

Students who earn the Minor in Photography for Non-Art Majors often pursue careers in journalism, education, history, psychology, sociology, the sciences, and other similar professions.
