:: EUROPEAN MASTER OF PROFESSIONAL PHOTOGRAPHY

The European Master of Professional Photography is designed for students who hold a Bachelor’s degree (or equivalent) and wish to pursue a career in photography, with a particular emphasis on the business management of the profession.


The European Master – lasting for 14 months in total – comprises three phases:

• the 32-week Program, from September to May;

• the Expert Modules, from May to the end of July, which aim at deepening the students’ previous knowledge and skills in the areas most demanded by the professional market. Each module lasts four weeks, supervised by professionals within the respective domains of photography;

• the planning and elaboration of the Master project, which needs to be submitted to a jury twice: an oral defense of the pre-project allows the students to validate their professional projects’ feasibility and coherence; the final jury’s comments assess the projects’ future implementation.
