For those passionate about cinema who wish to pair it with another academic focus through a thoughtfully structured dual-degree option, the Joint Honors pathway offers an ideal solution.

Film Studies coursework will explore topics including international cinema history, modern Hollywood, television and film genres, Disney productions, current British films, and cult cinema. As a Joint Honors participant, you may opt to focus your final research project on either Film Studies or your secondary field of study.
