Overview

The Film Studies Major is offered by University of Mary Hardin Baylor. Film Studies gives you the tools you need to explore the context of films, analyze and critique them, and create films of your own.

Key Facts

Whether your interest is in looking back at cinematic history or immersing yourself in the rapidly changing technology of filmmaking, the Film Studies major will help you understand and become a part of this important form of communications. This major teaches you how to develop a creative idea and see it through to the end — a valuable ability in any profession. UMHB’s program is not the traditional film studies you would find at other colleges. Ours is a mix of the theory with a lot of the practical experience the film industry demands. The program is equipped with modern equipment to allow our students to jump right into filming, and the curriculum makes it possible for students to learn about all facets of film, from pre-production through the exhibition of films.
