Media & Cinema Studies Concentration Requirements

​​​​​​The Media and Cinema Studies concentration focuses on the critical skills, historical grounding, and research methodologies for understanding the cultural and social impact of film, television and digital media in our globalized society.

Our graduate seminar classes investigate current media-related topics through interdisciplinary perspectives including national and transnational media, film and media histories. The impact and potential of new technologies, the power of audiovisual media in society, the role of media in the formation of identities, aesthetics and popular culture, are also examined.

This concentration will be of interest to those seeking to prepare for a PhD program or to further their careers in the film, television and digital media fields.​
