In an increasingly media-saturated world, the study of film, in all its forms, holds a prominent place in our critical understanding of the modern world. Film Studies graduates benefit from a diverse array of career opportunities. These range from those that specifically relate to film – whether in academia, creative industries, film festival/ cinema programming or arts administration – to other spheres, such as publishing, journalism, public relations and education. A new discipline for the University, Film Studies at St. Andrews is among the most attractive subjects on offer. Noted for its outstanding level of student satisfaction at all levels of course instruction, Film Studies at St Andrews challenges students to develop their own interests within the discipline and provides a host of opportunities beyond the core syllabus. The course is open to those who have had no previous experience of learning about cinema as well as those who may have studied film and media subjects at school.
