Overview

Our course combinations are designed so that what you learn in one subject will complement and enhance what you learn in the other. In your final year you can choose either to split your time evenly between your two subjects, or to specialise in one.

By choosing History and Film & TV you’ll enjoy the freedom to choose from a wide range of optional modules, depending on your own preferences and interests. These subjects will help you to develop your analytical skills, giving you the confidence to intellectually challenge information and the way it is communicated.

This Film and TV and History (Hons) degree from Nottingham Trent University offers work placement opportunities.

Careers and employability

This is a major part of the curriculum. Key transferable skills are emphasised and there are opportunities to develop links with organisations and potential employers. Joint honours courses develop a wide range of skills. These include written and oral communication skills, critical analysis and a variety of IT skills. But you’ll also become more self-motivated, be able to work independently and in teams, and develop excellent time management skills.

Our recent Film & TV and History Joint Honours graduates have gone onto careers in:

Barclays International – analyst;
Frank Haslam Milan (FHM) – PR and marketing coordinator;
Move With Us – account manager;
Charity fundraiser; and
The Army – army officer training.

Other career areas could include:

heritage management;
teaching;

Many graduates also choose to undertake further study on one of our masters-level courses or MPhil and PhD research degrees.
