Masters in Film Studies or Communication?

I've done a search of the threads but didn't turn up a list of any DL masters in Film Studies or Communications.

Would one of the whizzes of the keyboard be able to help me find something? The googles I've tried have turned up the usual suspects but nothing interesting.

Thanks so much.

More information

Should have added that Union is too expensive. I'm hoping to do the whole thing for under $10,000.

The unusal suspects are UoP and all the other schools that immediately pop-up when you google distance learning.

I would prefer US since that is what I am familiar with.

RA since the ultimate goal is teaching.

I know you are most familiar with U.S. schools but for that field, the UK and Australian schools really have the best and cheapest selection... and probably pretty decent quality. For example, these programs:

There are lots of Communications programs:
Central Queensland U
Charles Sturt U
Regent U
Rensselaer Polytech
Seton Hall
Texas Tech
Victoria U
to name a handfull.
Film Studies is more scarce. I've only got two:
U of Melbourne
U of Wales - Aberystwyth
I'll bet that others will know more.
Good luck.

I actually had found it from another thread regarding science programs, but it has a pretty good listing of DL Masters and a few Doctorate degrees in both. Hope it helps.

 

Thanks very much guys!

I will take a look at international schools.

 

Academy of Art University offers an AA and BFA in directing, screenwriting, production, cinematograpy, etc. I don't think they're RA but have accreditation and are able to process federal financial aid.

They also offer a wholly online MFA in Motion Picture and Television production. The MFA rates seem high, though, at 650 per credit for 63 credits.

Still, this is good for anyone looking for an online program like this. I looked at Miami International University and University of Miami (local to me) and their tuition was about the same.

 

Even though they aren't RA, they're one of those rare examples where it doesn't seem to matter in the industry. AAU is very well respected in the studio art, film, and photography industries.

 

You're right. Especially in film, you're success is based on your work, not your education. But its good to have if you're looking for a job in a studio.

 

you guys are great

i come here and find wealth of information and information on anything ....

 

Texas Tech has a DL PhD in Communications, just thought I'd throw it out there.
