Program Description:

The Department of Cinema Studies is one of the first university departments devoted to the history, theory, and aesthetics of film and the moving image. The approach to cinema is interdisciplinary and international in scope and is concerned with understanding motion pictures in terms of the material practices that produce them and within which they circulate. While film constitutes the primary object of study, the department also considers other media that fall within the realm of sound/image studies to be within its purview. Three graduate programs are offered in the department: the M.A. Program in Cinema Studies, the M.A. Program in Moving Image Archiving and Preservation, and the Ph.D. Program in Cinema Studies.

Accreditation:

New York University is a member of the Association of American Universities and is accredited by the Middle States Association of Colleges and Schools.
