This program connects film analysis and cinematic history to key topics across various disciplines such as Creative Writing, English, Journalism, and Media Studies. For those passionate about cinema who wish to pair it with another academic focus through a thoughtfully structured dual-degree path, the Joint Honors option is ideal.
Film Studies courses will explore global cinema history, modern Hollywood, film and television genres, Disney productions, current British films, and cult classics. As a Joint Honors student, you may opt to write your thesis in either Film Studies or your secondary field.
Instruction comes from renowned specialists at our distinguished Cinema and Television History Research Institute, featuring accomplished scholars, film critics, directors, and industry veterans. The curriculum blends lectures, movie screenings, intimate group conversations, collaborative projects, one-on-one guidance, and independent research.
