UMassGives 2024
Since its inception in 1991, the Film Studies Program has become a dynamic center of interdepartmental and interdisciplinary activity. With active participation from a solid core of faculty members representing fifteen departments, Film Studies offers an Undergraduate Certificate, a Graduate Certificate, and an Online Certificate, and it is currently launching a new Major. The Program has received national recognition from independent sources such as the Eastman-Kodak Corporation (1993, 1995, and 1999) for "academic excellence in support of the future generation of filmmakers."
We are raising money so that we can continue to generously sponsor our students’ activities at UMass. Making a movie is a very expensive endeavor! Please give our students the opportunity to transform their exceptional creativity and dreams into their media projects
Make an even bigger impact! Give during our Power Hour on April 25 between 11:00 a.m. – 12:00 p.m. and help us get the chance to win up to $2,000 in bonus money!
