The MSc in Biological Photography and Imaging is ideal for students wishing to pursue a career in professional imaging.
The study programme incorporates the areas of science, imaging (both industrial and media production), research and communication.
The professional imager is vital to modern commerce and industry, and the development of these skills offers the integration of science technology and the commercial application.
In an ever-changing society, the professional imager is becoming a powerful voice in the way imaging is re-laid and how that information is interpreted. During this course we aim to give students an intensive and applied skills base to compete in a competitive world.
Students with professional experience at a level equivalent in experiential learning to that of a first degree will also be considered.
A condition of entry to this programme is attendance at a one-week intensive photographic skills course. This course is usually held the week before the academic year starts in September. Satisfactory completion of this course will compensate those students without a photographic background and ensure that all students have the basic techniques required for the MSc programme.
Students applying to this programme are expected to have their own S.L.R. (preferably digital) system. The camera systems normally used on this course are Nikon or Canon, should you operate a different system, you would need to discuss this with the Course Director.

The MSc in Biological Photography and Imaging is taught on a full-time basis over one year (September to August). Although you will register on the full-time route, it may be possible to negotiate a part-time route through the programme.
The course comprises 180 credits, split across 120 credits worth of taught modules and field projects, followed by a 60-credit ten-week work study project.
The course is preceded by a three-day skills course held during the week before the programme starts.
Assessment is completely based on coursework projects and assignments, and you can expect to spend approximately 50% of the taught course practically based in the studio, IT labs, or field environment.
The pass mark for the MSc is 50%.
We also offer a Postgraduate Diploma in Biological Photography and Imaging, which covers the taught component of the MSc but does not have a dissertation requirement.
