In all honesty, I do not think a photography class that is recreational should be part of the official curriculum.
Seriously, the Harvard course advertises itself with "what the difference between sports mode and portrait mode on the camera's dial is"
I love photography, I think it is good you can take classes and have fun (even though much of the course content you can learn yourself easily), but for academic credit on a school of engineering, no.
- wladimir 15y agoI think it's good that students get the chance learn some things outside their immediate subject area. Some experience in the more creative areas such as photography and design can't hurt, even for a CS student. You never know when it will come in handy.
- maurits 15y agoSure, I have done many elective classes including a couple on a military academy. The latter helps me understand the evening news a lot better. But my degree was in engineering and as such, all these other useful classes did not count as official part of my curriculum. And rightly so, I believe.
