If you're looking for a photography education, York offers several great schools with art programs. For example, York College's fine arts department offers a photography minor with classes in subjects such as digital photography and filmmaking and Dickinson College and Elizabethtown College offer photography and digital imaging courses in their art programs. For more intensive study, Albright College's art department teaches a five-course photography program.
With the many small businesses that employ photojournalists and professional photographers in the York area, jobs opportunities are expected to grow. Between 2002 and 2012, jobs in the arts should increase 23.1%, with 51 new jobs added each year. However, this includes everything from painting to dancing for a living, so the numbers for photography are smaller. On the other hand, in nearby Baltimore 200 full-time job openings are anticipated every year through a combination of new positions and openings in existing positions through 2012.
