Screenwriting Minor

The Screenwriting Minor introduces students to the concepts, skills, and practical experience needed to enter the growing screenwriting industries.  It offers an attractive opportunity for students interested in creative writing of any kind, film studies, theater, video game design, genre adaptation (print or stage to film), and film design or production.  As such, it would complement many majors, among them English, Creative Writing, Theatre, Visual Art and Design, Communication, or Film Studies.
