I am proud to expound upon the academic rigor of Brooks Institute when discussing the qualities of my school with friends and family. Unlike most schools offering majors in Photography, the curriculum at Brooks does not focus on artistic, but rather technical acheivement. Although the degree granted is a BFA, the program heavily emphasizes the practical skills neccesary to succeed in the field. There is an intense focus on experiental learning and mastery of technical skill which leads to superior levels of acheivment. It is the extremely rigorus nature of our program which produces graduates of exemplary ability and acheivement.

Brooks Institute is renowned as one of the best, and foremost, if not THE best; professional photography, filmmaking, visual journalism, or graphic design school the world over. Anyone in the "industry", affiliated in the visual arts, worth their salt, knows of this name. Brooks Institute faculty is a list of the "who's-who" working professionals that are involved with the media today. This the kind of insight and experience privy to students in this real world environment. The opportunity to personally meet, and learn from these creative, and timely experts is unsurpassed. I'm fortunate to attend there.
