Description
|
NYU's Program in Culture and
Media is interdisciplinary in nature and brings together
theory, research, and production for graduate students in
the Departments of Anthropology and Cinema Studies. The
program is run in cooperation with the Film and Television
School. The Program Certificate requires the completion of
eight courses (four in production and four in
theory/history) and an original film/video ethnographic
documentary or other scholarly project. The Certificate
Program prepares students for film and video production of
ethnographic documentaries; research and analysis of media
practices using ethnographic methodologies; and writing,
teaching and analysis of ethnographic screen history, theory
and production. Graduate students who leave with a Masters
and a Certificate have gone into careers in documentary film
production, film programming, archival research and
management, as well as work in media departments of museums.
Graduate students who leave with a Ph.D. have gone into
academic careers in anthropology or media studies that are
conducive to ongoing production activity.
