The Department of Film & Media Studies offers a range of courses in critical studies and digital video production, and cross-lists film and media courses with other departments. Moving image media have been one of the most distinctive innovations and experiences of the past century. In today's media-dependent culture, developing a critical understanding and a historical knowledge of media forms is vital. Film and media studies provides an interdisciplinary understanding of the history, theory, language, and social and cultural aspects of film, television and digital media; introduces research and analytical methods; teaches digital video production skills and approaches; and encourages cross-cultural comparison of media forms, histories, audiences, and institutions.
