Bachelor of Science - Film

In Portland State University's (PSU) School of Film, students are challenged and inspired by a comprehensive film program that unites film theory and filmmaking as they make the connections they need to succeed as a filmmaker or film scholar. PSU offers one of the best Northwest film schools, a place where students refine their creative vision and work with outstanding professors who are active in the film industry and in academia. As students pursue their degree, they’re encouraged to become a part of the film community on campus and in Portland through events, clubs, networking opportunities, and off-campus internships. And when students graduate with their film degree, they’ll be ready to jump into the profession or deepen their studies in graduate school. First-year students can start studying Film Analysis and Filmmaking right away. With those prerequisites under their belt, students can select from an expansive set of classes as they receive a broad-based education in film studies and filmmaking.
