Media and Film Studies

About this course

Media and film studies is the critical and theoretical investigation of how moving images, broadcast content, digital platforms, and the media industries that produce them shape our understanding of the world. It asks how films, television, news, advertising, and online media are made, how they create meaning, and what their social, political, and cultural effects are. The discipline combines close textual analysis with historical, economic, and sociological perspectives, giving you tools to think seriously about the media environment rather than simply consuming it. At the University of Huddersfield, this four-year full-time programme takes you through the full breadth of the discipline. You will study film history and theory, media analysis, the structures of media industries, digital and social media, documentary practice, and the representation of gender, race, and class in media te
