European Satellite Program
FILM AND TELEVISION / 459
This program is located in Dusseldorf, Germany, and
focuses on film in the European context—the Avante Garde,
independent film making, and other experimental media.
This is designed as a semester program with Fall semester
offerings focusing on Film and TVPD majors, and with the
Spring semester focusing on Media Studies for all students.
Taught by LMU faculty and European film and television
experts in the Loyola Marymount University tradition,
the courses are offered in the form of master workshops,
providing students with an exclusive learning experience.
The close interaction with faculty that is afforded by this
format makes the program unique. Students receive 15
semester hours of credit by taking workshops and a German
language and culture course.
The semester in Dusseldorf includes excursions and
educational field trips to give students a deeper insight
into film and TV production in Europe. Depending on the
semester and opportunity, students will attend film festivals,
visit production sites, go to film museums, and meet and
talk with directors, producers, and others in the media field.
A week excursion to Berlin and Prague, two centers of film
production, will bring to life the theories learned in the
classroom and will help to inform and stimulate students
in their own artistic productions. Each student will produce
a 10-15 minute video documentary. Staff and teaching
assistants in film will assist with the technical and creative
needs, if necessary.
Students with a miniumum GPA of 2.8, who are in good
standing at any university or college and, for the Fall
semester, have completed the FTVS and PROD prerequisites,
are invited to apply. The program cost is comparable to
full-time residency at LMU and includes tuition, housing,
breakfast and dinner, excursions, and public transportation
within Dusseldorf. Applications are available through the
Study Abroad Office in University Hall, Suite 1840.
