Students wishing to explore the history, theory, and criticism of film and television in addition to their major course of study, are encouraged to minor in cinema studies. In this minor students examine the role of cinema as a unique twentieth-century art form and as an influence on cultural practices of enduring social significance.
Film majors specializing in production or screenwriting who wish to add the cinema studies minor may not use these courses to satisfy elective requirements in their specializations.
Graduation Requirements
Students must maintain a 2.4 GPA or higher with a minimum grade of C- in all courses counted toward fulfilling the cinema studies minor requirements.
