Bachelor of Fine Arts - Photography

In the Photography program, students will learn skills from darkroom to digital photography. OCAD University has some of the best photography facilities in Canada and one of few schools with both a colour and black and white darkroom.

Students will benefit from studying photography at Canada’s largest art, design and media university, where students will select electives from a wide range of creative areas. These include electives in Sculpture/Installation, Printmaking and Drawing & Painting, among many others.

Unlike some other photography programs, which focus on commercial photography, OCAD U’s Photography program is more artistic and experimental. The program emphasizes a student's artistic vision, while encouraging students to explore a broad range of issues and styles. In the upper-year levels, students will gain real world experience through a placement in the arts community or through an exhibition of their photographs.

At the end of this four-year program, students will earn a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree.
