LEARNING OUTCOMES
Each clinic deepens and strengthens the students' personal approach, visual thinking and technical skills building up students' personal knowledge on certain areas of photographic techniques, e.g. analogue processes and lab work, image post-production, studio, lightning, video, editing and digital printing.
1-3 cliniques will be offered per year and the topics arise from current technical development and changes in the equipment. Students may choose clinics based on their personal demands.
On a successful completion of each clinic, students
- have built up their previous knowledge of particular techniques, tools and materials
- are able to apply new techniques to their work
- are capable of applying learned new skills and practices to their own personal work
- can specify the separate sectors that are needed for the pursued outcome
- can explain and reason the varied steps of making that lead to particular results
- are able to work on one's own initiative
- hold knowledge where and how to find additional information when necessary
The learning outcomes vary and are related to each workshop and they will be described in detail in the course description of each study event.

The order of priority for admitting students to courses at Aalto ARTS 1.1.2018 onwards (approved by The Committee of Arts, Design and Architecture on 10.10.2017)
The order of priority is as follows:
- students for whom the course is compulsory for their major/programme and who have scheduled it for the current academic year in their personal study plan (HOPS);
- exchange students for whom the course is a part of his/her officially approved learning agreement and scheduled to be taken during the current semester;
- students for whom the course is compulsory for their major/programme and who have not completed it yet;
- students, for whom the course is part of his/her major s or programme s alternative studies and has been scheduled in the student's PSP (HOPS) for the current academic year
- students, for whom the course is part of his/her major s or programme s alternative studies and who have not completed the requisite number of credits for alternative studies yet;
- students for whom the course is compulsory for their minor;
- students, for whom the course is part of his/her minor subject s alternative studies and who have not completed the requisite number of credits for alternative studies yet;
- students who have applied for the course through a student mobility scheme (internal mobility within Aalto University, flexible study right (JOO) studies etc.);
- other students.
Courses that are intended to be multidisciplinary (e.g. UWAS courses) may apply an order of priority based on the learning outcomes of the course, while bearing in mind the university obligation of enabling students to complete their degrees within the normative duration of study set for the degree. The order of priority does not apply to courses organised by the Centre for General Studies or doctoral courses.
This decision on the order of priority does not influence the right of the teacher to define prerequisites for the course.
