    About Bachelor of Film & Television

    The Film & Television major offers a balance of technical craft and artistic vision that prepares students to pursue professional careers in the Film and Television industries. The program is hands-on with core themes driving each year: Story, Voice, Professional Practice, and Implementation. There is also substantial coursework in screenwriting and film studies.

    This highly competitive program, with only sixty-four freshmen accepted annually, features smaller classes that foster student-faculty interaction and mentoring, as well as ample access to excellent equipment. The unique Drexel co-op and Los Angeles Summer Program enhance education by providing students with professional employment experience.

    Virtual courses and virtual components to courses play a small but important role in the curriculum for Film and Television as they allow us to attract talented faculty and speakers from across the country and expose students to real-world experiences to film production and the exposure to world class situations that would be impossible in a face-to-face setting.

    The Film & Television program also offers a minor in Film Studies.
