The Film (formerly, MPVT) program in the School of Film & Photography is a comprehensive program encompassing film studies, technical skills, and production processes and provides a solid foundation for our students to achieve successful careers in the highly competitive film industry. Our students are exposed to a variety of courses ranging from theatre and production processes, acting, writing, editing, directing, cinematography, lighting, sound and production design. The final year of the program is capped off with an individual senior project that is approved and developed in consultation with a team of faculty advisors.

As this major is in high demand, the department implements a gate system (see Film Option Gate Requirements in the curriculum) in which only students who meet specific grade point averages in required courses are accepted into the program.
