Photography is connected to every facet of daily life, including television, film, journalism, art, politics, history and music. Exploring the ideas, history, contexts and techniques of visual representation, as well as helping you develop the practical skills you need in modern photography - taking photographs and manipulating these images - will provide valuable training for those who wish to pursue a future in art or the media. Photography also combines well with a huge range of other subjects. Many careers involve some aspect of photography, ranging from journalism and film to radiography and surveying.
