The MLitt in Film Studies aims to provide students with an understanding of the cinema and the way films are developed, and their medium's relationship to other art forms.
Students are encouraged to think critically about these ideas, and to appreciate the importance of relating critical close analysis of style and form to theory, context, politics and history. These analytical skills, combined with assessment that tests presentational and communication skills and problem solving abilities, are essential in the workplace.
The programme is inherently interdisciplinary in its approach (looking at film in relation to literature, art history and music, television and popular culture).
This is one of over ten degree pathways offered in the Masters Programme in Humanities with Specialisation. Students on the Programme take some common modules, and are able to draw upon the research culture of the School of Humanities. All the core teaching is conducted 5.30-7.30pm to allow attendance by part-time and full-time students alike. Other classes are scheduled for the mutual convenience of staff and students.
Students must take all core modules, one optional module, plus the dissertation (for the award of MLitt).
