Why Study English – Film and Media Studies Concentration at Bishop’s?

Students study film and media against the longer backdrop of the history of literature and culture, understanding that our contemporary electronic media (film, radio, TV, the internet) have evolved from that historical context. In particular, they develop a critical awareness of our global culture of moving images, understanding its origins in Europe and the United States in the 1890s and the diversity of its forms and modes of application in the present, for example in streaming-TV dramas or TikTok videos. Many students also produce their own creative work in such forms as screenplays, podcasts, and short films. A 24-credit Minor is also available.
