Bachelor of Arts: Film & Television

The Bachelor of Arts degree in Film & Television prepares motivated and imaginative students for creative, business, legal, and academic careers in film and television. Our program integrates historical and critical analysis with industry studies to cultivate informed, responsible media consumers and creators.

Students gain a comprehensive understanding of the contemporary media landscape through courses in film and television including:

  • History & aesthetic analysis
  • Industry practices
  • Producing
  • Representations of race, class and gender
  • Global movements
  • Genres and artists

All BA students have the opportunity to intern with media professionals locally, regionally, and in production centers like Hollywood and New York. BA students also serve as producers and creative collaborators on student films.

BA Film & Television Degree Requirements

EVENTS:

Our annual Undergraduate Research Symposium showcases outstanding research papers of undergraduate students at the School of Theatre, Film & Television. Over the course of several days each April, the research paper presentations of student finalists are released and made available to view online at urs.tftv.arizona.edu. The event culminates in an award ceremony with cash prizes for the top three finalists in both Film & Television and Theatre.
In this 2020/21 Film & Television Senior Seminar run by Dr. Anna Cooper, each student chose their own topic in film and television studies and wrote a 20-page essay of innovative scholarship which they then translated into either a video presentation or a podcast segment. Projects built on the knowledge and skills gained throughout the BA in Film & Television, and topics ranged from fake news and the evolution of satirical news programs to hypersexuality in DC Superhero female characters to transnational filmmaking by Mexican directors.
