The Film Studies minor is designed to foster students’ understanding and appreciation of cinematic texts, industries, and audiences. Students pursuing the minor will think, speak, and write critically about visual media from a variety of disciplinary perspectives, enabling them to participate as thoughtful citizens in our increasingly globalized and mediated world. Any department can offer a course in Film Studies; departments that regularly offer Film Studies courses include Anthropology, Art, Communication Studies, English, Global Languages, Music, and Philosophy.
