Critical Studies Minor

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 critical studies. In this minor students examine cinema and television’s role as a unique twentieth-century art form and as cultural practices of enduring social significance. FVS majors may not take this minor due to overlapping of courses. Students must maintain a 2.4 GPA or higher with a minimum grade of C- in all courses counted toward fulfilling the film and video studies major or minor requirements.
