The E-Center for Cinema is a resource for bringing together study and activity surrounding the history, theory, criticism, and production of the moving image at the University of Minnesota and in the Twin Cities arts community at large. Established from an initiative of the Department of Cultural Studies and Comparative Literature at the University of Minnesota, the E-Center is a work in progress: part historic archive of Minnesota film, part practical information, part news resource, and part active community. We hope you take part in and enjoy the vibrant and growing community of Minnesota film.
Studies in Cinema and Media Culture is one of three major-field tracks offered through the Department of Cultural Studies and Comparative Literature (CSCL); the other tracks are Cultural Studies, and Comparative Literature. The SCMC major is interdepartmental; core courses and electives are offered not only in CSCL but also in a number of other contributing departments.
