Profile of the programme
This programme is the only one in Flanders that is totally focused on the thorough scientific study of film and visual culture.  Central in the curriculum are theory, history, and the analysis of the medium of film as a multicultural phenomenon.  The carefully chosen subjects deal with the specific nature of film as a form of art and communication and as a social institution where diverse questions regarding cultural representation are relevant.  Other forms of visual communication are covered as well.  There is some attention for recent developments in image technology and its influence on aesthetics and the social impact of film. The lectures are illustrated extensively with film fragments and other visual material.  This programme relies on cooperation between the University of Antwerp and her partners in the Association and the Filmmuseum in Antwerp, MuHKA_media.
Occupational profiles of graduates
Graduates find employment as film scientists, teachers, and reviewers.  The course also offers opportunities in the world of film and image production and distribution, audiovisual media, and many private and public companies where a specific visual expertise coupled with decent academic training can offer new perspectives.
