Film, Television, and Electronic Media

The Associate in Science in Film, Television, and Electronic Media for Transfer (AS-T) degree is intended to meet the lower-division requirements for radio-television film, television-film, television, video, film, or electronic arts majors, an emphasis or option within such a major, or a major considered similar to these majors at a participating California State University (CSU) campus. This interdisciplinary program includes a balanced curriculum with coursework in both film production and theory. Following transfer to a participating CSU campus, students will be required to complete no more than 60 units to obtain a bachelor’s degree; however, some CSU campuses accepting this degree may require additional lower-division major preparation. This degree may not be appropriate preparation for students transferring to a CSU campus not accepting this degree or to a university or college that is not part of the CSU system. Students should consult with a MiraCosta counselor for further information regarding the most efficient pathway to transfer as a film, television, and electronic media major and to determine which CSU campuses are participating in this program. To complete the degree, students must fulfill the following requirements: Complete a minimum of 60 CSU-transferable semester units. Complete all courses required in the major with a “C” or "P" or better. Complete the Cal-GETC general education pattern. Obtain a minimum CSU-transferable GPA of 2.0. Complete a minimum of 12 units in residence at MiraCosta College.
