British Cinema

This module looks at British cinema from 1960 onwards from a variety of perspectives. It considers how 'British cinema' is defined and its purpose in terms of representation and diversity in the face of the dominance of Hollywood. We study topics including the Bond franchise, Swinging London, social realism, the British gangster film, Hammer horror, the costume drama, Thatcherism on screen, New Scottish cinema and 'the Troubles' in Northern Ireland. We also visit Broadway cinema for a screening and industry talk.

Analysing British Television

This module explores in-depth the specific characteristics of the British TV landscape. It introduces students to the story of British television. It surveys important factors and influences that have historically shaped British television industries and institutions, as well as forms and genres. Second, it explores different televisual mediation of class, gender and race/ethnicity. Third, it explores the key genres which enable us to make sense of British television both in the past and in the present.

European Cinema and the City

Despite the UK’s departure from the European Union, in European Cinema and the City we continue to move freely across Europe.

On these travels we visit a series of European cities, including Berlin, Bucharest, Glasgow, Ibiza, Liverpool, London, Madrid, Moscow, Nottingham, Odessa and Paris, and our visits range from close analysis of short extracts and individual shots to a more general engagement with films as they relate to specific national and European contexts, i.e. city symphonies, Ostalgie, the Romanian New Wave and the European zombie outbreak, studying key films drawn from the silent era to the contemporary period e.g. Piccadilly (E.A. Dupont, 1929) and The Lure (Agnieszka Smoczyńska, 2015).

We start the module deep in the bowels of the city and end it by scaling high-rises and on our cinematic séjours we dance, shamble and walk in the city where we experience nostalgia, paranoia, solitude and totalitarianism and encounter aliens, bunnies, dandies, dogs, singing vampiric mermaids, slackers, unscrupulous entrepreneurs, walls and zombies.

These journeys through the city, and across Europe, coincide with discussions of modernity: its promises, its ambiguities and its successor(s). We'll do all this and more before leaving the city.

You may choose to take an optional year-long placement in Year Three, either in the UK or overseas.

For your major project in your final year of your studies, you can choose to undertake a project in either one of your two Joint Honours subjects.

Major project modulesExpand all +

Philosophy Major Project

The Philosophy Major Project will provide you with an opportunity to study a self-chosen philosophical topic in depth guided by expert supervision. It will assist you in reflecting on the academic knowledge, creativity, and professional skills that you will have acquired in the first two years of study, in a way that fosters your intellectual authenticity, alongside a deeper appreciation of the contemporary relevance of philosophically informed modes of questioning, thinking, arguing, and concept creation. The ability of Philosophy to shape today's emerging social, cultural, and political agendas will also be a key focus of your project.

40 credits

Film and Television Major Project

The Film and Television Major Project offers you the chance to create a project on a film and/or television topic you are inspired by. This could be a written dissertation, a visual essay or podcast for instance. Taught sessions and tutors help throughout the process. You are free to choose your topic and develop your ideas around areas of interest. Recent projects range from witchcraft on film, queer youth in American cinema and female rage in the horror film to masculinity in Breaking Bad, satire in It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia, sexuality in Sex Education and Squid Game and the K-Wave.

Transformations: Agency and Social Change

This final-year module challenges you to consider the role and value of interdisciplinary research through your academic subjects in advocating for and achieving meaningful social change at different scales. Building on your first- and second-year studies, you will conceptualise, develop, and deliver your own interdisciplinary approach to a live brief focused on an aspect of social change, considering the role of issues such as ethics, justice, power, rights and inequalities, reflecting on the role that is played, or could be played, by humanities disciplines in addressing these global issues. The module also provides you with an opportunity to bring together and reflect on your personal, academic and professional development throughout your degree. For this module you will be assessed through a creative project based on a live brief, and a piece of reflective writing focused on planning for your future beyond undergraduate study.

Philosophy, Film and Media

Examine the specificity of film and media and their relationship with philosophy by exploring the power of mediating processes and their role as a transmitter of philosophical material. Consider the status of the media artefact and its capacity to shape and inform contemporary identities and experiences. You will also have the opportunity to study philosophical films. Understand the way in which philosophical discourses are able to shape, inform and critique contemporary media practices, experiences and cultures.

Being Good: The Foundations of Morality

Why be morally good? This question has been at the centre of philosophical debate for over two thousand years and has received a host of radically different and distinctive answers from thinkers across space and time. This module will examine and critically assess a key selection of these different views, and then consider their applications to contemporary ethical paradigms regarding moral status and equality.

Language, Communication and Power

What is the nature of linguistic meaning? How does language encode thought? How is language used as a tool for getting things done? Each of these questions have received considerable attention from philosophers, and this module will cover some of the main themes. You will address key issues in semantics and pragmatics, and study philosophical work in this area, including that of Frege, Russell, Wittgenstein, Grice, and Foucault.

Film and TV optional modulesExpand all +

American Television since 1950: from broadcast to narrowcast

This module examines American television from the 1950s to the present. It follows key developments in the industry, such as the formation of the classic network system, the arrival of cable and the development of on demand and streaming services, each of which has characteristic sorts of programming associated with it. We focus on key genres and cycles during this period to investigate how television responded to changes in wider American society.

Rubbish Film

Rubbish, garbage, trashy we all occasionally use these words to describe films. Salvaging such throwaway responses, this module explores questions of equality, sustainability, climate change, industry and innovation through rubbish and its relationship to film.From films made from rubbish, and films that take garbage as their explicit thematic concern; to fake found footage films, bad biographies, the 'dirt' of B movie cinema, and Hollywood's penchant for 'recycling' via superhero sequels and franchise reboots, you will come to understand the wastefulness of film without getting your hands too dirty.

American Cinema Since 1949: Margins and mainstreams

1949 marks the enactment of key legislation which had some far-reaching effects on American cinema over time. This module covers the period from that date to the present, identifying key trends in the industry as it responds both to these changes and to changing American social contexts in a wide variety of ways. We examine both mainstream Hollywood cinema, the independent sector, and the increasingly complex relationships between the two.

We regularly review our course content based on student and employer feedback to ensure they remain current and relevant. This may result in changes to module content or availability in future years. Optional modules will only run where there is sufficient demand. This will be determined on a case-by-case basis to protect the academic and student experience.

How you're taught

How will I learn?

Teaching takes a variety of forms and during your degree you will experience many different types of learning activities. A small number of optional modules which you could choose to study as part of your degree are delivered entirely online, allowing you the flexibility to study at a time that is convenient to you. Other modules use interactive lectures and workshops that are supplemented by smaller group sessions, including:

seminars

tutorials

problem-solving workshops

training workshops

hands-on practice

group projects and presentations

guest speakers

fieldwork.

You will also be able to take part in lots of extracurricular activities outside your course, including debating, research seminars, student challenges, sustainability and careers training, sports, student societies and much, much more.

Study abroad in Year Two

You’ll have the option to take part in an international exchange at a partner university in the second half of Year Two. This will enable you to gain impressive international experience, and broaden your perspective and career ambitions.

Supporting you

If you’re struggling with a topic or require additional support or guidance, you can arrange to see your tutors in small groups or one-to-one, to discuss essay plans or to seek some specific academic guidance.

It is the nature of the subjects offered in the School of Social Sciences, however, that much of your time will be spent engaged in independent study. We recognise that this marks a change of culture from school or college, and we have in place a system of study support to help you adapt to this.

How you're assessed

We use a varied and diverse range of coursework assessments to develop your skills and support your progress. These include digital projects, reviews, case-studies, essays, presentations and reports.
