The Department of Cinema develops artists and creative thinkers in cinema. It fosters critical appreciation of innovative as well as traditional cinematic expression. Students learn how to view cinema works in their social, economic and historical contexts, as well as in terms of the general history and aesthetics of art. The production program in film and electronic media is not oriented toward developing mere technical proficiency, but toward encouraging artistic discovery and expression. Both production and analysis courses are valuable to a wide range of students, not only because cinema is a major art and entertainment medium of our time, but also because increasingly our experience and exploration of all areas of knowledge is transmitted through cinema-related media.
