UT Austin’s Radio-Television-Film department ranked No. 10, second among public programs

For its fourth annual ranking, The Hollywood Reporter magazine conducted its widest-ever survey, with more than 2,300 ballots submitted by the industry and schools.

The Department of Radio-Television-Film at the Moody College of Communication was again ranked 10th on the Top 25 Film Schools list. The RTF department was No. 2 on the list for public programs.

From THR’s ranking:

UT’s Department of Radio-Television-Film is the only non-California public university with a "Semester in L.A." program, which will celebrate its 10th anniversary as well as its 1,000th student in 2015. Back in Austin, UT has instituted a new 3D production program and, thanks to a $50 million 2013 gift from the Moody Foundation, now calls itself the Moody College of Communication. UT had an extra reason to break out the champagne this year: The best actor Oscar victory of alum Matthew McConaughey.
