Overview

About the program

The importance of audiovisual culture and industry is on the rise in contemporary society and BFM has a special area of responsibility in Estonia to develop the Estonian audiovisual culture. Thus although the curriculum of our Audiovisual Arts and Media Studies program from Tallinn University is planned to be interdiciplinary we put special emphasis on themes of audiovisual culture and contemporary digital culture.

This means relying to a significant extent on humanities based approaches, but we lead an interdiciplinary dialogue with other approaches especially with economics based approaces to media and the audiovisual industries. A special kind of attention will be given to the role of media in education and to the questions of audiovisual literacy and didactics.
