About Film And Media Studies BA in University of Leicester

Over the course of the Film and Media Studies BA you will discover the relationship between film and other screen, broadcast and print media, whilst engaging with the various theories that have developed around the subject.

During your degree you will explore the power of the audiovisual and digital media within contemporary society and culture. You will do so by considering how we consume media and film, how the two are delivered to audiences and how 20th and 21st century media are inseparable from contemporary concerns. This course also has an interdisciplinary aspect as you will draw upon expertise from sociology, humanities, film studies, and media and communication.

You will have the opportunity to get hands on experience of film-making in the second year Film Production module. Regular film screenings in our fully equipped film theatre will expose you to examples of the cinematic canon, whilst seminars will provide you with an opportunity to discuss and share ideas about the film and media you have experienced.
