BA (Hons) History and Film Studies with a Year Abroad

Whether you’re interested in how film has been used to document past events, reimagine history, or shape society’s attitudes, this degree will inspire you. Combining two disciplines, history and film studies, you'll gain a commanding understanding of both the history of film as a medium and how to use film as historical evidence to unlock the past and explore the way collective memory has been shaped through the generations. UEA is home to world-leading experts in both disciplines, and your studies can range widely across time and film genre. You might explore the Middle Ages, or the monumental events of the twentieth century. You might cover British film, Hollywood, or world cinema. As you follow your studies, you may choose to learn more about the media industries, make your own films, or perhaps delve deeper into the past. Our flexible modular system allows you to shape a degree that best supports your learning adventure. Make use of our outstanding media production facilities, valuable partnerships, and local opportunities. We’re home to the sector-leading East Anglian Film Archive – a unique resource that you might use in shaping your own Final Year dissertation, for example. We have close links with the British Film Institute in London and the Norwich Film Festival. Meanwhile, you’ll be studying in a region, here, that is a dynamic centre of media industries, and home to local production companies.
