Title: Finalize Request #5767

The Coordinator for Film Studies and the Department's Chief Major Undergraduate Adviser consulted with the departments of Art & Art History, Communication Studies, and Sociology to include new and existing courses in these academic subjects to broaden the Group B interdisciplinary studies lists. The additional courses offer students a chance to consider film history and cinematic culture in its fullest context as a form of art and visual media.

Film Studies majors must complete a minor but students have the option of using a minor or second major to complete the requirement (as they do with the English major offered by our department). The majority of Film Studies majors are able to complete the requirements for a second major while staying on track for a four year graduation plan. The department wanted this option to be part of the bulletin text so that students can consider their options early on in their program.
