Take a look at what surrounds you and use photographs as a tool to transform everything into emotions and get your message across. That’s exactly what the Photography degree programme at IED Roma is all about
On your three-year degree programme in Photography at IED Roma you will learn how to express yourself through photography in a creative, pragmatic and meaningful way. You will be developing technical, project design and cultural skills, understanding how to match all of that to your personal sensitivity. You will develop curiosity and a desire to learn, looking at the world around you with greater openness of thought and empathy.

After the course, a First Level Academic Diploma is issued. It is recognised by MUR - Italian Ministry of University and Research - and has the same legal value of a Bachelor’s Degree.
