Through international programmes, visiting artists from around the world and a regimen of film history, culture and theory, our graduate students benefit from understanding film within its historical, artistic and international contexts.

Key Facts

Through exposure to the areas of video, photography, computer art, sound, music composition, creative writing, drama, humanities, women’s studies and African American studies, the Film programme from Syracuse University encourages an interdisciplinary approach to graduate studies.
