The Department of Film, Television, and Theatre will provide you with a liberal arts approach to the study of film, television, and theatre. Our program offers a unique mix of design and production, writing and performance, history and theory. In having film, television and theatre in one department, we prepare you for the real world where actors, directors, writers, and other artists frequently move between and among these different entertainment spheres.
Along with creative tools to make film, TV, and theatre, you will gain knowledge of narrative, history, aesthetics, industry, methodologies, and ideas that shape and underpin screen and stage cultures. You will learn to do critical analysis of movies, TV shows, and plays; to understand their style, structure, and meaning; and to consider historical context.
