Communication/Art/Commerce/Values/Culture
Movies are the ultimate art, involving every mode of expression, from movement to music, from narrative to news. No medium is better suited to the study of communication and self-expression. Movies are also a peerless window into culture, revealing everything from our "common knowledge" to our secret desires. No form is better suited to the study of society's attitudes, beliefs, and values.
F&M's Film & Media Studies program opens these avenues of research to students across the curriculum. The program offers courses in film history, criticism, theory, video production, and related skills. Film & Media Studies can be a Special Studies major, a minor, or a concentration within a theatre major.
