Welcome to the Film Studies Program at Vanderbilt University. Our major combines the practice of filmmaking with the study of film theory and global film history. Emphasizing cinema as a modern aesthetic form and a hands-on cultural practice, we train students for careers in film and media production, communications, academic media studies, and community and social relations. While our classes encourage new ways of thinking, looking, and making, they also cultivate the traditional learning skills of a liberal education. Supplementing the core curriculum in film are classes in the related arts, disciplines, and ethnic and national cinemas.
