Welcome to CINE

The Department of Cinema Studies & Moving Image Arts (CINE) aspires to integrate the critical, historical and theoretical study of cinema, media and the visual arts, with artistic and commercial practices. Our Department offers the academic degrees BA, and BA/MA in critical film studies, and BA, BFA, and MFA degrees in film and video arts. All of our students in the critical and production tracks complete a number of critical studies requirements including cinema history, film analysis, film theory, genres, documentary practices, directors, national and regional cinemas, and other history and theory classes. These courses are all integrated with filmmaking and critical studies majors sharing their different expertise to make for a more engaging, deeper understanding of the subject of our studies.

The Department of Cinema Studies and Moving Image Arts recognizes our increasingly media-dependent and screen-seeking society and understands the making, distribution, contextualization, and interrogation of visual media in all its forms is an everyday reality. We believe our students and faculty must understand the political nature and inequities embedded in technology, as well as in its content and global dissemination patterns. Our Department has the great opportunity and the tremendous responsibility of fostering an environment in which the creation, interpretation, analysis and engagement with the moving image will open the doors of diversity and inclusivity with every step and at every level.
