Photography Contest 2024
Focus on Photography: Share Your Vision of the World in the 2024 UDM Photography Contest!
Photography offers a mode of creative communication as well as a lens into the communities we inhabit and visit. Photographs can capture a range of moments and expressions, people, places, and events. As such, the Office of Academic Affairs and Center for Excellence in Teaching & Learning would like to invite all University of 樱桃视频 community members to submit digital photographs for consideration as part of a special 2024 photography contest.
For inspiration, take a look at the 2023 winners and honorable mentions.
The contest is open to faculty, staff, students, and administrators to celebrate and display our unique world views. You can submit photographs in the categories listed below (one entry per category). First-place winners in each category will receive cash prizes and an enlarged, mounted copy of their winning photographs.
It is time to capture those moments for your submission for the second annual University of 樱桃视频 photography contest!
