The television and film industries are thriving, with Greater Manchester and the North West as key powerhouses outside London. From landing an entry-level job to strategising your future career progression, the University of Greater Manchester’s BA (Hons) Film and Television Production course prepares you for a career in this exciting sector, whatever your specialism or ambition.

With a love of storytelling at its heart, this practice-based, industry-shaped course teaches the creative, business and technical skills of the television and film industries, and, crucially, how those skills interact to create work that connects with audiences. By creating and making short-form productions you’ll develop ideas and stories, learn industry production and post-production skills and processes, and be inspired and challenged to question how, why, and what you make. Grounded in critical thinking, our creative environment empowers you to question and explore the world around you and to feed this into your creative work.

Initially, the course focuses on the foundations: technical skills, scriptwriting know-how, understanding of the industry, and the use of cinematic language. As you progress, we’ll immerse you in real-life industry simulations of a production company and set, where you’ll perform key roles, and learn in-demand skillsets, software packages and processes as you create, make and market your own TV show. In the final year, you‘ll bring all your skills together to create a major project designed to make you shine, whatever your specialism. You’ll also undertake an industry placement and create an employment strategy using your major project as a calling card.

In a nutshell, the course delivers the creative, technical, and business skills you need to build a portfolio that showcases you and your unique voice. Our focus is on helping you gain the skills and knowledge necessary to progress in the media industry as an employee, become self-employed, or create your own production company.

Home Undergraduate Tuition Fee Adjustment

The tuition fee applicable to the first year of your programme of study is confirmed in your offer letter. The tuition fee set is based on the regulations and guidance in force at the time of offer but remains subject to adjustment in accordance with any government-approved inflationary increase. The University reserves the right to amend tuition fees for all years of study, including the first year, by no more than the maximum increase permitted under legislation and regulatory guidance issued by the UK Government and the Office for Students.

Where such increases are approved, they will not exceed the rate of inflation, as measured by an appropriate index such as the Consumer Prices Index (CPI), or any successor measure specified by government. The University will apply any adjustment consistently across affected student cohorts and will give reasonable notice to students of any confirmed change to the published fee before the start of the relevant academic year.

This approach ensures that tuition fees remain compliant with applicable legislation, proportionate to inflationary changes, and consistent with government policy linking permitted fee uplifts to the maintenance of high-quality education and outcomes. For more information, please refer to the government guidance at: gov.uk – Universities to deliver better outcomes in return for full fees.
