Courses

I had a fantastic time studying in the Film, Theatre & Television Department; all the tutors are passionate about their subjects and I had a lot of fun learning from them. A particularly great aspect of the seminars was the amount we were encouraged to contribute – who doesn't like talking about film?! The depth of analysis that is expected from both the English and Film, Theatre & Television Departments has helped me enormously as the film critic for Radio 1. I am grateful that my degree has directed me towards a tailor-made job and I feel far more confident in my knowledge of film as a result of studying it alongside theatre and television.
