**Overview**<br/><br/>Whether you are interested in how film has been used to document past events or reimagine history, to shape society’s attitudes, or to open a window on times gone by, this degree will inspire your studies. Combining two disciplines, history and film studies, youll gain a commanding understanding of both the history of film as a medium and how to use film as historical evidence, to unlock the past and explore the way collective memory has been shaped down through the generations. <br/><br/>UEA is home to world-leading experts in both disciplines, and your studies can range widely across time and film genre. You might explore the Middle Ages or the monumental events of the twentieth century. You might cover British film, Hollywood, or world cinema. As you follow your studies, you may choose to learn more about the media industries, or perhaps delve deeper into the past. Our flexible modular system allows you to shape a degree that best supports your learning adventure. <br/><br/>Make use of our outstanding facilities, valuable partnerships, and local opportunities. We’re home to the sector-leading East Anglian Film Archive – a unique resource that you might use in shaping your own Final Year dissertation, for example. We have close links with the British Film Institute in London and the Norwich Film Festival. Meanwhile, you’ll be studying in a region, here, that is a dynamic centre of the media industries, home to local production companies. <br/><br/>You’ll develop many transferable skills on this degree course, including high-level research and communication skills, team working, leadership, and self-management. These desirable transferable skills will open up a wide variety of careers, whether you want to become a writer, producer, or director in the industry or any number of other occupations in marketing, advertising, the charity sector, and more besides. In the past, our graduates have gone on to success as film industry executives, producers, media managers, creative directors, or to work in film heritage, for example. <br/><br/>In BA History and Film Studies with a Placement Year, youll do a placement in Year 3, gaining real-world experience that connects your academic skills with employment while you gain new skills to complement your course. <br/><br/>**Disclaimer**<br/><br/>Course details are subject to change.
