Overview

At Film Studies and Production at the University of Denver you will explore existing and emergent media platforms, learning what it means to be an ethical, effective and culturally sensitive communicator. In many classes, you will write scripts and participate in screenwriting teams, while also developing technical skills in lighting, editing and sound design. You will work with award-winning faculty who will guide you through the processes of fundraising, grantwriting, exhibiting, selling and promoting your films.

You also will be challenged to develop a deeper understanding of how sexual orientation, race and ethnicity, gender, class, age and ability are represented in and by media — and why such representations matter. Our classes adopt an intersectional lens in their exploration of how identity markers create unequal power dynamics both on and off screen, highlighting how off-screen dynamics greatly impact what is seen onscreen.

General requirements

If English is not your native language, you must submit an acceptable score on either the IELTS (International English Language Testing System), TOEFL (Test of English as a Foreign Language), DET (Duolingo English Test) or CAE (Cambridge English: Advanced) or qualify for an exemption.

Academic performance in high school is the most important factor in our admission process. However, we are a test-optional university, and submitting test scores is your choice. If you choose to submit your SAT and/or ACT scores, they will be considered along with your other application materials for both admission and merit scholarships.

We also want to know who you are outside the classroom. We want to know you’ll do more than just attend your classes. We want you getting involved across campus and in the community.
