Overview
Why study Modern Languages / Drama and Theatre at Aberystwyth University? As a student in the Department of Theatre, Film and Television Studies you will be joining a vibrant and creative department where drama and theatre, film and media, scenography and theatre design collide. The Drama and Theatre component of this degree is a challenging and creative one, where you will be exposed to an unique combination of creative and critical approaches. Students benefit from our close connections with key industry partners, including National Theatre Wales, Music Theatre Wales, Quarantine Theatre Company, and Theatr Genedlaethol Cymru. We are also located adjacent to the Aberystwyth Arts Centre, one of the largest Arts Centres in Wales, which regularly presents national and international theatre and dance performances. Our exceptional facilities and resources for practical work includes three rehearsal studios, each with flexible technical facilities; two large professionally-equipped studios with digital lighting rigs controlled via ETC Congo and Strand Lighting consoles, Yamaha and Soundcraft PAs, Sanyo AV systems and Strand lighting and two NXAMP; and costume and wardrobe facilities. Language development You can study your choice of languages from beginners' or advanced level - choose from French, German, Spanish and Italian. Beginners will follow an intensive course in the first year. You will typically receive 5.5 hours of linguistic and grammar classes per week. The Department of Modern Languages is a relatively small and close-knit department, which means that you will benefit from our unique approach to language development. All of our language tutors are native speakers or experts in the relevant target language. Your year abroad will be spent in a country related to your chosen language. You can choose to study at one of our partnered universities, undertake a paid or unpaid work placement, or a combination of the two. All academic staff at the Department of Theatre, Film and Television Studies are research active and/or involved in Knowledge Transfer projects and have either relevant academic qualifications at doctoral level or equivalent professional experience and expertise. All of the lecturers in the Department of Modern Languages are qualified to PhD level and are research active specialists in their chosen field. We also employ highly qualified and experienced language tutors, and native-speakers, who will ensure that your learning is of the highest possible quality and who will provide you with constant support through your years of study.
