Film Studies prepares students for various careers and further educational opportunities by providing foundational instruction in the analysis of visual culture. As a Film Studies student, you'll assess the medium of film in interdisciplinary courses. You'll learn methods of film analysis that take into account the history and conventions of filmmaking. You'll learn about the social impact of film — its uses for reflecting, shaping, and critiquing culture — while improving your ability to express interpretations of this important and influential medium. You'll emerge with the ability to critically view and interpret films, becoming a discerning cinema analyst.

Dozens of career fields rely on digital media and visual narratives — including fields in the Arts, Business, Journalism, Writing, Education, and many more. Do you want to write about moving images, make them, market them, or teach them? If you want to develop your ability to analyze visual language and visual narrative, you may find that a Film Studies major or minor is the right fit for you and your goals.
