Portfolio due dates are March 1 and October 1 each year.
Media Study majors who select the concentration in Production take basic courses
in all three production areas: Film, Video, and Digital Arts. It is our philosophy
that students should be exposed to multiple mediums to foster artistic talent
and encourage ingenuity. Students in Media Study are thereby able to determine
which production area best suits their interests as well as understand that
no medium functions exclusively. Students will continue to diversify at the
Intermediate level with two courses, one of which MUST be a portfolio course,
and will then focus on one production area at the advanced level. Students in
Production also take a balance of courses in analysis, media & culture,
interpretation, and Media Study electives.
You may print this sheet out for your own advising purposes and check off courses
as you take them (or plan to take them) to fulfill the 48 credit hours required
for the major.
