The department accomodates majors, minors, and modified majors. Please see the requirements for each degree plan in the information below.
Our major coursework provides a foundation for all students in the theory, history, and criticism of film and television, and requires at least one course with a production component from the many on offer. The program for this degree allows students to shape their own academic path according to their interests and choose an emphasis within the major (for example: film history, animation, screenwriting, etc.) Film & Media Studies majors take at least one additional course relevant to their emphasis in another department within the school of Arts & Sciences.
Students have the option to personalize their degree even further, and may modify a Film & Media Studies major with another related discipline, with Film & Media Studies as either the major or the minor part of a modified plan. Students take at least four courses in F&MS plus one of our prerequisites, Film 1, 2, or 3 to fulfill a modified major.
The department also accommodates those students who would like to minor in Film & Media Studies.
