Bridging the gap between the “creatives” and the “suits”, New York University has announced a new dual-degree graduate program that will give aspiring film producers and studio executives the knowledge to navigate the fast-changing landscape of financing and filmmaking today. The joint MBA/MFA degree is a partnership between NYU’s Stern School of Business and Kanbar Institute of Film & Television at the Tisch School of the Arts, both highly regarded in their fields.
The MBA/MFA degree is a three-year program that will enable students to pursue both degrees simultaneously. It is expected to attract the very best producing candidates by focusing on both the creative and business sides of film. Designed to be the most comprehensive of its kind, using the top faculty and resources of each School, the dual-degree program will produce highly employable individuals sought by the major film studios, independent production companies, and the major television studios and networks.
