Our one-year Master's in Film & Screen Media provides comprehensive training in digital filmmaking while developing critical analytical skills in the field. This dynamic program blends theoretical film studies with practical applications, fostering both academic excellence and creative expression through critical writing, film production, media journalism, and cultural management. Participants receive expert instruction in screen media and digital film production, with optional opportunities to engage with cultural initiatives and festivals like Schull's Fastnet Film Festival.
The program features an annual lecture series with industry professionals and visiting experts, along with guidance from UCC's resident Arts Council Film Artist. As Ireland's exclusive participant in the European University Film Award – a prestigious honor presented by the European Film Academy and Filmfest Hamburg – selected students may attend the Hamburg ceremony, joining peers from universities across Europe in judging contemporary cinema.
