Bachelor of Fine Arts [B.F.A] Screenwriting
- The BFA in Screenwriting offers a well-rounded collegiate education in the arts and humanities and social and natural sciences, with a comprehensive study of, and practice in, the art and craft of screenwriting and related filmmaking disciplines.
- Overall, the screenwriting courses concentrate on developing the tools required to create believable characters and stories in several major fields of screenwriting (film, television, web series, playwriting, and elective choices including comic books and games).
- The program builds to a final thesis project, either a television series pilot script or a feature film screenplay.
- This is plotted, written, and rewritten, with guidance and feedback from a thesis committee in a manner designed to reflect the development processes in the entertainment industry.
- In the liberal arts and sciences, students complete the majority of the required Foundation Studies in the first two semesters.
