A Film Studies degree examines the theoretical, historical, and critical approaches to film and explores cinema's narrative, artistic, cultural, economic, and political implications. The course covers Hollywood, independent, and experimental cinema.
Students can select from several core modules, including script writing, film curation and contemporary Hollywood cinema. Students learn about the roles of the audience, directors, actors, producers and scriptwriters. Work placements are encouraged to further develop your skills in real-life scenarios.
Film Studies graduates find work as film or video producers, editors, and researchers. They work in film marketing and PR, media production, publishing, filmmaking, events management, and local and community broadcasting. Due to the highly competitive job market, work experience during degree years counts post-completion of the degree.
