Welcome to the
Department of Film,
Television, and Theatre

Majors in film, television, and theatre at Notre Dame get more than an excellent liberal arts education—they also have the advantage of being in a department with a high degree of student-faculty interaction, a wide variety of hands-on courses, and state-of-the-art work and performance facilities. And we didn’t even mention the networking opportunities with ND alums already in the entertainment industry...
