Bachelor of Arts (Honours) - English and Film & TV

The course provides students with an exciting opportunity to explore literary studies from the traditional to the contemporary – from Shakespeare to American literature, through to travel writing and modern poetry. Students will also learn about the film and television industries, how programmes work and other factors that shape the movies and shows students see on screen.

This will allow students to make sense of how literature, film and television convey meaning. Students will also learn about their audiences, and explore how film and TV function in the age of global corporations and digital media.

There is a lot of flexibility in the structure of a Joint Honours degree, allowing students to tailor a package to their developing academic interests.

During the first year, students will study four core modules which provide a clear and exciting framework for their development at later stages.

In the second year, students will study three core modules. Students will also be able to select a number of optional modules based on their individual interests or spend the second half of the year on international exchange at one of Nottingham Trent University's partner universities.

In the final year, students will undertake a dissertation on a topic of their choice and select four optional modules. Students must select at least one module from each subject.
