1.00 - 6.00 Credits
A culminating course in which students demonstrate their conceptual understanding and creative abilities in photography and visual communication. Each student develops a coherent body of work and a thesis paper reflecting on that work from a personal, historical, and critical perspective. Offered fall and winter semesters, but not necessarily in the summer. Prerequisites: PHO 266 with a grade of C or better and PHO 366.
