Learning outcomes
The master's degree course focuses on both developing professional skills enabling graduates to compete the hard business of commercial photography, and on developing talents in the sphere of free photographic creation. The course content is based on a supposition that the student has already managed all basic spheres of photography during the bachelor's degree course, and therefore, the programme is especially dedicated to evolving students' personalities - assigned tasks are selected to initiate independent and creative approach to solve them. Moreover, the construction of the education scheme anticipates the graduate's possible future role in a managerial position, such as the art director of advertising or communication agency, the director of a publishing or editing house, an organizer of a visual-sociological research, etc. At the same time, it gives students the ability of basic theoretical reflection of their artistic activity, as well as the ability to interpret and critically review work of other artists.
The gained capabilities constitute an encompassment and an aquirement of knowledge and experience in the given field of study, they result from a concrete annotation of the subject and are aimed at a profile´s fulfilment of the graduate of the given field of study.
