The RIT in NYC study away experience allows School of Photographic Arts and Sciences students to draw limitless inspiration from the epicenter of the creative industry.
They spend a semester living and studying in New York City, using classes, internships, excursions and networking opportunities to enhance their career preparation. In addition to NYC-inspired coursework and internships, students meet weekly with professional photographers, art directors, designers, agents and artists — many who are alumni — to gain behind-the-scenes insight into the industry.
The study-away program is offered through RIT Study Abroad.
