Film Television and Digital Media Minor

The Film, Television, and Digital Media mi­nor, located in the English department, will equip students with the marketable abilities both to engage thoughtfully with multimedia texts and to produce original content across a range of styles and platforms. Electronic media play a key role in how information is disseminated in fields as diverse as busi­ness, education, healthcare, and the scienc­es. The minor in Film, Television, and Digi­tal Media is designed to enhance students’ professional skillset by equipping them with the tools to analyze and critique multimedia content while also empowering them to cre­ate original content. The minor’s emphasis on diverse forms of visual communication, from Hollywood movies to cutting-edge doc­umentaries, from streaming television series to YouTube videos, and from screenwriting to social media posting, allows students to focus on the media that are the most relevant to their personal and professional goals. The minor blends learning with doing, encourag­ing students to engage these media as both consumers and creators.
