TDF (The Department of Theater, Dance & Film at F&M) offers a firm foundation in the nature, history, analysis, practice and current state of these three arts.

TDF prepares students for post-graduate work, for entering the profession or for a life of informed arts consumption and advocacy.

TDF fuses academic approaches with practice in a critically informed atmosphere that respects the unique nature of each art and establishes relationships among these arts and beyond.

TDF offers students the opportunity to explore communication both within and beyond traditional written forms, in an atmosphere of freedom and support for distinctive forms of research and creative work.

TDF productions, offered to the entire community, aim at the highest artistic standards and promote students' development as intellectual, creative individuals.
