Students of the Photography BA programme can learn the basiscs of classic and contemporary photography and interdisciplinary creative strategies from illustrious teachers, in small group, using state-of-the-art technologies, to become style setters globally.
The programme is designed to train photographers with a thorough knowledge of photography and an autonomous vision, who are able to express their ideas on a variety of subjects using the diverse language of photography across various means, styles and genres.
Our long-standing Photography programme develops the visual, social and creative skills of students, opens up their mind to embrace current phenomena of the world, and prepares them for entering the MA programme that requires autonomous creative work.

This year, the MOME community celebrated the graduates of twelve MA and nine BA courses in a festive ceremony. Speeches were given by interior designer Mrs. Bánki née Laura Szerdahelyi, one of our jubilee graduates, who turns 91 this year and designed the interiors of Déli Railway Station; Curator and László Moholy-Nagy’s grandson Daniel Hug; and designer Stefan Lengyel, who is celebrating a milestone anniversary this year. In addition to conferring the degrees, this year’s Rector’s Special Awards and several professional awards were announced, and the Gold, Diamond and Iron jubilee graduates also received their certificates.
Lenyűgöző kötött anyagok és sziluettek, mesebeli lények, egy elhagyott gyárépület, egy ikonikus lámpa, egy pöttyös labda, személyes élmények: a Moholy-Nagy Művészeti Egyetem (MOME) korábbi rektori diplomadíjas munkái idén júniusban fővárosi citylight-plakátokon mutatkoznak be.
A Moholy-Nagy Művészeti Egyetemre jelentkezni nem csupán egy képzési forma melletti döntést jelent, sokak számára hosszú ideje dédelgetett álom, szakmai és alkotói célkitűzés. Éppen ezért a felvételi eredmény elmaradása csalódás lehet, különösen akkor, ha csak néhány pont választotta el a jelentkezőt a bekerüléstől... A folytatásra több lehetőség is van, nem muszáj feladni. A MOME oktatási ökoszisztémájában számos olyan alternatív útvonal létezik, amely segít újratervezni, továbblépni, akár frissen érettségizettként, akár már diplomásként.
