Graduate Degrees

Minors

  • Cinema and Television Studies
    Cinema and Television Studies minors will analyze the new screen culture of the 21st century. In particular, you'll closely analyze cinema and television texts; write different kinds of critical, analytical, and research essays; study global and historical trends in cinema and television; read major theorists and philosophers of the disciplines; and explore the aesthetic and cultural convergence between television and cinema.
  • Video Production
    Today’s video-centric, web-driven culture creates demand for content creation and editing skills in many arenas besides television and film. Video production skills can support your work in virtually any major and enhance your employability at graduation.
  • Writing for Television
    Television is flourishing on networks, cable channels, and especially online, and it needs stories—tons of them. Columbia’s Writing for Television minor prepares you to become a scriptwriter who can focus on a career in television or create story content as part of a broader production, artistic, or communications career.
