Film & Media Studies in Arts & Sciences is a stand-alone program, unaffiliated with any department, though many of its courses are cross-listed with American Culture Studies, Art History, Comparative Literature, English, Germanic Languages & Literature and History.
The undergraduate major in film and media studies requires the rigorous study of history and aesthetics in an attempt to understand the creative force of an individual art work, its relation to other artistic production, and its place in culture. Furthermore, because film and media creations are most often produced within an industrial context, the student of film and media must also study industrial and business practices.
