Why Photography at Andrews

Our program is the longest-running and best-equipped Adventist photography program around. We teach you to not only improve your photo skills, but to learn through a lens of faith.

Our program is designed with you in mind. We provide practical, hands-on experience with requirements like your Senior Project and Portfolio. You’ll even get training in website marketing.

Photograph on campus, or take your camera abroad. Our study tours let you snap pictures in Europe, the Middle East or India. You can even take courses overseas through Adventist Colleges Abroad (ACA).

Looking for local inspiration? Andrews is just ten minutes from the sunsets and sandy beaches of Lake Michigan, and many small towns near campus have vibrant art galleries and cafes to experience.

Good photographers have qualities like creativity, imagination and determination. Our degrees will cultivate these skills so you can find success in a competitive marketplace.
