The aligned objectives of the FUAB Formació School - Archival Studies and Records Management, the Centre for Image Research and Dissemination (CDRI), and the Institute of Photographic Studies of Catalonia (IEFC) make possible this universitary training that offers a specialisation within archival and photography studies, both lacking specific offers such as those offered by this specialization.

This programme has a double purpose:

  • To respond to many public and private entities' need to properly organise and exploit their photographic fonds and collections; 
  • To equip photography professionals with different strategies and knowledge tools that will help them in managing and commercialising their photographic production. 

The programme takes into account the various aspects that must allow a correct management of these photographic documentary collections, collected in the contents of the different modules that make up the study plan. It is developed with the collaboration of professionals from the sector of recognized prestige in the fields included.

Who is it for:
Archivists, photographers, librarians, documentalists, museologists, curators, researchers, collectors and people interested in photography in general.

Internships

UAB specialization diplomas facilitate the completion of external internships in companies or institutions, with the aim of providing students with the professional experience necessary to support their entry into or advancement within the labor market.
These internships are extracurricular and, therefore, are not recorded in the academic transcript. The program coordination team will provide detailed information on how, where, and under what conditions they can be carried out.
