Photography Studies College, commonly abbreviated to PSC, is a privately owned independent tertiary college located in Melbourne, Victoria, Australia.

History

Photography Studies College, initially named Impact Photography,[1] was founded by Roger Hayne[2] in 1973 in City Road. Until 1967 Hayne was Publicity Office for the Victorian Railways, leaving to work as photographic officer with Australian Antarctic Division[3], and was a member of the Prince Charles Mountains survey party in 1969, before setting up the photographic school in South Melbourne. Mount Hayne in the Prince Charles Mountains, plotted from Australian National Antarctic Research Expeditions (ANARE) air photos of 1965, was named by ANCA for him.[4]

No other private institution offering training in photography in Australia has remained active as long as Photography Studies College; John Riches joined PSC in 1975 as a part-time, then full-time lecturer before he and another photography lecturer, Tony Perry departed in 1986 to start a new college, the Australian College of Photography Art and Communication Pty. Ltd. (ACPAC), along with at least six others who included Perry, Graeme Heath and David John Brown. The venture was put in the hands of an administrator in June 1993 and closed in 1994.[5]

Managing Director of PSC, since April 1986,[6] is Julie Moss. During the 1990s she established the first formal credit transfer arrangement between a private vocational college and a university, a move supported by Dr Robin Williams,[7] then Dean of RMIT. The arrangement enabled PSC graduates to articulate into a Degree in Photography at RMIT,[8] and PSC became the first private Australian college authorised to provide photographic education to international students. Moss improved the professional viability of College courses by liaising with industry bodies[9] the Media, Entertainment & Arts Alliance and the Australian Institute of Professional Photographers to create key pathways into the industry including a mentoring program established in 1993.[8]

In 2005, the same year as the death of her life and business partner Hayne (who like her was an Honorary Life Member of the AIPP), she committed the College to the complex transition from analogue to digital photography.[8]

Photography Studies College now occupies adjoining buildings at 65–67 City Road, Southbank, 3006. It is a dual sector provider of Higher Education and VET Programs, and is a Registered Training Organisation. The College is a member of Independent Higher Education Australia.[10]
