Syracuse University's MFA photography program offers an intimate and rigorous interdisciplinary course of study emphasizing development of the professional, technical and intellectual skills necessary to create visually and conceptually ambitious work. As a student in our program, you will be immersed in an animated curriculum designed to produce artists with an original and sophisticated aesthetic. Students also benefit from our close affiliation with Light Work, a world-class, artist-run photography institution housed on the Syracuse University campus. Between the contemporary programing at Light Work and our visiting artist program, our students receive mentoring from some of the art world's leading artists and curators.
Graduate students admitted to the program benefit from substantial financial assistance. Admitted MFA applicants receive 13,000 USD or more in scholarships per year of study, bringing student tuition costs to approximately 10,000 USD a year. In addition to these awards, many of our students receive teaching assistantships and fellowships. The photo faculty—Doug DuBois, Laura Heyman, Yasser Aggour and Susannah Sayle—is a diverse group of working artists who have a comprehensive knowledge of contemporary photography and are experienced in documentary, video, conceptual and performance art, as well as curatorial practices. Our facilities include lighting studios with digital capture, digital editing, Imacon film scanners, and archival inkjet printing, as well as traditional black-and-white darkrooms capable of processing and printing large-format film up to 8 x 10 inches.
