Welcome to the Associate of Science Degree (Film, Television, and Electronic Media) - Transfer

The Associate in Science in Film, TV, and Electronic Media for Transfer (AS-T) will prepare students for transfer into bachelor's degree programs in broadcast, film, TV, and similar majors. The Associate of Science for Transfer (AS-T) is intended for students who plan to complete a bachelor's degree in a similar major at a California State University campus. Students completing these degrees (AA-T or AS-T) are guaranteed admission to the California State University system, but not to a particular campus or major.  Students demonstrate knowledge of the historical, cultural, and economic influences on the content of motion pictures and television, both narrative and non-narrative (documentary) filmmaking and non-scripted (“reality”) television programs. Students demonstrate knowledge and command of the processes of writing, direction, production, post production, and distribution of cinema (single–camera) and television (multi-camera) productions.
