BA Film and Television (4M5N)

The three‑year full‑time BA in Film and Television at the University of Bristol provides an integrated programme that combines critical analysis, historical perspectives, theoretical frameworks and hands‑on practice. Students begin with introductory units that teach analytical techniques for film and television, then progress to specialist modules covering major historical movements, contemporary practices and the underlying concepts that shape the industries. Throughout the course, learners develop scholarly investigation and critical thinking through essay writing and presentations, while also collaborating in groups to design projects and produce short films. Instruction is delivered by leading scholars and practising professionals, and in the final year students examine the film and television sectors in depth, gaining the opportunity to undertake placements or industry‑linked projects that prepare them for professional work.
