Film

Choose the only film production degree program between Vancouver and Western Ontario. Or focus on film studies in your degree to prepare for a career as a film critic, historian, or librarian, or to gain entry into professional programs such as public policy or law.

Realize. Your Film career starts here.

Study animation, documentary, digital media and traditional film making in the film production degree, while gaining a solid grounding in film studies and history.

Develop writing, research, and analytical skills in the film studies program, while focusing on the role film and cinema play in our lives. There is ample room for minors such as Arts Administration, or a double major, so you can add breadth to your program and extra value to your degree.

Whichever option you choose, the award-winning faculty and filmmakers of the Department of Film will help ensure your choice is the right one.

  • Develop your unique voice in a production medium or studies area in our collaborative environment and close-knit community
