Overview
The Film, Television, and Digital Media minor is designed for students who wish to augment their major program of study with a series of courses that promote the study of film, television, and digital media as art forms with social, political, cultural, and economic significance. The minor consists of a selection of lower and upper-division courses that introduce students to the practice and critical study of film, television, and digital media.
