Film and Media Studies focuses on the histories, theories, aesthetics, and cultural meanings of film, television, video games, digital platforms, and other media.
The undergraduate program in Film and Media Studies trains students to do media analysis. Our core courses teach students both to understand the histories and aesthetics of media and to make sense of the ever-evolving media landscape. Our topical elective courses give students the opportunity to take classes on a wide range of topics, including Latinx media and popular culture, the history of computing, reality TV, game studies, Korean cinema, queer media, the films of Alfred Hitchcock, Brazilian cinema, hip hop culture, race, sports, and media. The department also offers courses in screenwriting and media production with the goal of offering insights into how media work through practical training.
The graduate program in Film and Media Studies provides students with rigorous foundational training in film, television, and digital media scholarship and advances a commitment to interrogating questions of history and power. Ph.D. students develop original research projects that will advance our discipline.
UC Irvine’s location in the heart of Southern California - close to studios, game developers, and film and television archives - makes outstanding professional internship and research opportunities possible. Undergraduates can complete internships for credit at some of the leading companies in the entertainment industry; build community and collaborate on filmmaking through our student-run clubs, the Film-Arts-Drama Alliance (FADA), and the Cine Collective; and develop independent research projects under the supervision of our faculty.
Film and Media Studies encourages students to take advantage of the many opportunities that UC Irvine offers to study abroad. Our students have studied in UCEAP programs all over the world and regularly earn credit toward their degrees. Information on these programs is available through the UCI Study Abroad Center.
In order to cover the extra costs of media and equipment demanded by the specialized Film and Media Studies curriculum, the School of Humanities charges laboratory fees to students taking Film and Media Studies courses.
