Course Overview

Our MA Film and Screen Media with Film Programming and Curating explores the history, development, and interaction of film, television, and other screen media. The course encourages you to explore a wide variety of screen media in historical, sociological, aesthetic, and anthropological terms and in a variety of cultural and national contexts. You can also explore film programming and curating and choose to specialize in areas including the film in museums and galleries, audiovisual archival practices, and exhibitions.

You can thus personalize your MA studies and specialize in areas of film and screen media that match your intellectual interests and career goals, while a work placement option allows you to gain practical experience that may enhance your career prospects.

The course is unique in its combination of world-class, rigorous postgraduate study with creative and practical opportunities. Some of the optional modules, including the two-month work placement module, can help you stand out in a competitive job market and further your career in the media, creative and cultural industries. The course will also prepare you for advanced research at MPhil/Ph.D. level if you wish to continue studying.

This course has three other pathways: MA Film and Screen Media, MA Film and Screen Media (with Study Abroad), and MA Film and Screen Media (with Television).
