Our BA Film and Television Studies with a Year Abroad degree covers the history of film and television from its earliest days to the present. You’ll explore the social and political contexts that shaped media storytelling and learn about the development of the industry and cinemagoing, perhaps encountering global phenomena like Doctor Who or the Marvel adaptations along the way, or other topics to inspire your studies while you sharpen your critical powers. There are also opportunities to do media practice, and to gain insights into the creative process of making film and television by producing your own creative work. You’ll make use of our outstanding facilities, valuable partnerships, and local opportunities.

These highly desirable transferable skills will open doors to a wide variety of careers, whether you want to become a writer, producer, or director in the industry, or explore other occupations in marketing, advertising, the charity sector, and more besides. In the past, our graduates have gone on to achieve success as film industry executives, producers, media managers, creative directors, or work in other related areas such as film heritage, for example. On this version of the course, you’ll have the exciting opportunity to spend your third year studying at one of our partner institutions across the globe.
