The University
of Hawai`i at Manoa offers a Master and Bachelor of Fine Arts degree
in Art (specializing in photography)
The program explores photography as an artistic medium that
interconnects with other disciplines and media. Techniques and craft
are emphasized along with critical inquiry, history, and theory.
Undergraduate courses focus on both film/chemical and digital imaging. In each course students are introduced to a
selection of new techniques and processes, and given opportunities
to develop independent bodies of work. Our aim is provide an environment
where beginning artists can hone their craft concurrently with a vigorous
investigation of its meaning in the context of contemporary art.
