Learning photography is NOT a breeze. You have to apply yourself and put a lot of work into learning all the terms and most used techniques that are required to become a successful photographer.

If the college has a major or minor in photography, then of course you will be taking many classes in photography and art as well.

Beyond your degree in photography, you will also need to work as an assistant for three to five years or become an assistant staff photographer to a large company with a PR department, newspaper or magazine to hone all the skills you learned while in school

How much you earn will have more to do with your skills and the clients you eventually acquire. This process can take over ten years, so you need to be patient as well
