Key Facts

In subsequent years, you will have the flexibility to map your own route through the programme, combining practice-based modules with theory-based options in the way that work best for you. With many production modules to choose from, you can make this degree as hands-on as you’d like! In your final year, you will have the option of producing a short film as part of an independent dissertation module.

Through a range of assessments that test your creativity, your technical expertise, your understanding of industry practices, and your ability to communicate effectively in a variety of forms, you will develop a range of skills that will enhance your employability and open doors into a very wide range of careers.

Our editing suites have up-to-date production software such as Adobe Creative Cloud; Avid Media Composer; Avid ProTools, and others.  We also have a range of high quality camera (including a Netflix approved 12K camera), sound, lighting, and grip equipment for you to use throughout your degree – whether that is for course work or for your personal projects outside of the classroom.

Put your learning into practice with the option of doing a placement year between your second and third year of study. With the support of our award-winning Student Development team, you can secure work experience that is a good fit in terms of your professional aspirations. If that’s not for you, though, you’ll still have plenty of opportunities over the course of your studies to hone your career.
