Movie enthusiasts and history aficionados will thrive in this engaging film and history program featuring international study. This degree explores cinema through multiple lenses - as mass entertainment, commercial industry, and cultural artifact - while investigating historical connections. Your overseas year will broaden your artistic perspective and immerse you in different cultural contexts. The curriculum balances timeless masterpieces with modern films, spanning diverse genres like noir, horror, sci-fi, documentaries, and animation.
History coursework traces evolving historical discourse, representations of the past, and themes from ancient civilizations to modern conflicts. The Framing the Past module specifically examines how cinema interprets history, analyzing films depicting everything from ancient Greek/Roman/Egyptian eras to modern historical dramas about British colonialism or the Titanic disaster.
