Film Studies???

<p>Does anyone have any information about the Yale film studies major?</p>

<p>I'm actually pretty interested in this too. From the information I have it seems to be more analytic and in the classroom, geared towards theory and criticism. Here's an excerpt from their website:</p>

<p>"Film Studies is an interdisciplinary major that focuses on the history, theory, and criticism of film. Courses examine cinema's role as a unique modern art form and the contributions of moving image media as cultural practices of enduring social significance. Film Studies offers students latitude in defining their course of study within the framework established by the Film Studies Committee. With this freedom comes the responsibility of carefully planning a coherent and well-focused program. Because of the special demands of Film Studies and the diversity of its offerings, potential majors are encouraged to consult with the director of undergraduate studies early in their academic careers."</p>

<p>For now, that's all I can tell you.</p>

<p>That would make an awesome minor.</p>

<p>Does anyone know of Yale's creative writing department? I'm assuming they have one since they're so known for their journalism and english.</p>

<p>--yale actually doesn't offer minors
--Yale doesn't have a creative writing department, it's a concentration w/in the English department. We also don't have undergraduate journalism!</p>
