The mission of the Film and Media Department is media literacy, the ability to think critically about the ways in which images and sounds create ideas. Our medium-sized department provides close mentoring and an individually tailored course of study where students learn how to be discerning consumers, scholars, and producers of the most influential cultural forms of the 20th and 21st centuries. Our curriculum offers a solid grounding in American and International film and media history, theory and criticism, and production.

Film and Media majors and minors are highly motivated, passionately enthusiastic and thoroughly trained in the perception and interpretation of moving images, and as well as the skills necessary to communicate their ideas verbally, in writing and through creative work. They go on to careers in the media entertainment industry (television networks, talent agencies, production companies), marketing and communications, law school and academia. Armed with the critical thinking skills that are the hallmark of an interdisciplinary liberal arts education, they are well prepared for whatever career they choose to pursue. In short, the Film and Media Department plays a crucial role in the mission of Emory College: to prepare students to be responsible and well-informed citizens of the world.
