About the Minor 

If you're a movie buff, the Minor in Film Studies is designed for you. This minor allows students to discover different approaches to cinema by examining everything from the classics to new cinema and their influence on culture and society. Students will explore film genres and emerging media, develop critical awareness, and gain a greater understanding of themselves and the world around us.

Students who earn the Minor in Film Studies often pursue careers in fields such as English, media production, film, advertising, and other similar professions.
