In our globalized society and digital culture, images are becoming increasingly important. This change calls for specialist knowledge, decision-making skills for those responsible in photo institutions and photo related projects.

The Certified Program "Photography" deals with theory and history as well as the digital future of photography as a central medium of image scientific discourses. Photography is discussed as an artistic form of expression as well as a historical and social scientific document. Furthermore, the acquisition of general management skills and know-how about image markets, photojournalism and agency work is important.
