Film and English are cognate subjects that are mutually reinforcing. The Joint Honours programme allows students to deepen their understanding of each discipline by exploring complementary approaches and perspectives. The affinity between the study of English and the study of Film facilitates, in particular, understandings of the dynamics between critical analysis and practical, creative realisations. Students spend half of their time in each Department, and are taught separately in each subject. In Film, students follow a comparable developmental path to Single Honours students but take fewer practical options (some practical units are still available to Joint Honours students). Joint Honours students take half the Single Honours English Programme. There are also opportunities to explore connections between the two subjects in mandatory units such as Criticism in the Arts (SART10001), optional units such as Film Criticism (DRAM33128) and Victorian Afterlives (ENGL39014), and final year dissertation projects.
The Film component of the programme is constructed to provide students with a deep understanding of film and television, and to equip them to use the critical, theoretical and practical skills central to the disciplines. Through historical and conceptual study, the curriculum enables students to analyse, research, interpret and understand film and television from a critically and contextually informed perspective. In addition to detailed and rigorous academic enquiry into film and television, the students also acquire practical filmmaking skills. Options that focus on some of the most significant historical, cultural, artistic and technological forms of film and television promote a more detailed exploration of these media and their creative realisation. Final-year students select independent study options, in which they can gain experience working in the creative industries, develop a practical project of their own devising, or produce an extended piece of academic writing. Having gained a combination of specialised and transferable skills, students are well-equipped to pursue a range of careers in contemporary media and arts-related professions, and within academic, professional and managerial sectors.
The English component of the programme is designed to provide a general knowledge and understanding of literature in English from the earliest times to the present. In this provision, the Department of English is committed to maintaining a balance between established traditions of literary study and the latest developments in the subject. The aims of the curriculum are that students should develop reading skills and critical and conceptual awareness, and that they should acquire a knowledge of various genres and modes of literature and of its chronology and contexts, without inertly accepting received ideas of literary history or critical approach. Students are encouraged to read many well-known authors in English, while also being given opportunities to develop their own interests in particular authors and topics, under the tuition of specialists.

Statement of expectations from the students at each level of the programme as it/they develop year on year.
Level C/4 - Certificate |
Film component: The first year is introductory, providing a foundation for second and final year work. Students gain familiarity with the forms and aesthetics of film and television, and acquire practical skills in filmmaking, including editing and cinematography. In addition, students develop presentation and writing skills in small-group tutorials, and expand their understanding of film and television in a broader cultural context by examining them in dialogue with theatre and music on the Criticism in the Arts unit (SART10001). English component: Year 1 of the course has been expressly designed to lay the foundations which will allow students to fulfil the course's aims and objectives. Students should be beginning to acquire all the skills set out in 15B, and are expected to demonstrate quite a high level of proficiency in 15B.1-6. Likewise, they should be beginning to acquire the knowledge and understanding set out in 15A, and especially to demonstrate 15A.1-6. |
---|---|
Level I/5 - Intermediate |
Film component: In the second year, students deepen their contextual knowledge of film and television, as well as developing their appreciation of the variety and diversity of these media, on two mandatory historical units. Students also consolidate their understanding of forms, genres and contexts in film and television, and develop filmmaking skills in new areas, through optional units. Second-year optional units typically draw upon research-led teaching. English component: Further development of these skills and a greater degree of independent learning. Students take a pre-1700 period unit that develops their contextual understanding of the complexity and diversity of earlier literatures. Research-led special subject options deepen students’ critical appreciation of specific authors, genres, forms and themes. As well as demonstrating the skills noted in 15B.1-6, students' work is increasingly expected to demonstrate the skills noted at 15B.7-11. Likewise, their knowledge and understanding should increasingly be seen to demonstrate 15A.7-9. |
Level H/6 - Honours |
Film component: Students choose one or two supervised independent project options, through which they develop their particular areas of interest and gain further experience in researching and formulating academic arguments, conceptually-informed creative practice, and related transferable skills for future employment. Students also deepen their critical and analytical expertise, and extend their skills in filmmaking, through further optional units. Optional units are more specialized than in the first and second years, focused around specific case studies. These units make further use of research-led teaching. English component: Further development of skills and an emphasis on independent learning and research skills taken to a sophisticated level. Students take one post-1700 period unit that develops their contextual understanding of the complexity and diversity of modern literatures. Research-led special subject options deepen students’ critical analysis of specific authors, genres, forms and themes, while the optional dissertation demands high levels of independent learning, self-motivation, assimilation of complex knowledge, critical analysis and persuasive expression. All skills set out in 15B are expected to be demonstrated to a high level of mastery. Knowledge and understanding should demonstrate all of 15A. |

UG Workload Statement
Success as an undergraduate student depends on you being able to make the transition to self-motivated, independent learning. Programmes are designed to assist you in this development, in many cases by starting with units in which timetabled teaching, such as lectures and practical classes, provides the foundations of knowledge and skills in a subject, moving on to individual research-based work. Over time you will be expected to take increasing responsibility for your own learning, guided by the feedback on your work that you will receive. At the heart of your studies at every level there must be regular and disciplined individual reading, reflection and writing and it is this skill of independent studies, above all others, that will serve you best when you leave the University.
Most programmes use credits and a 20 credit unit broadly equates to about 200 hours of student input. This includes all activities related to the teaching, learning and assessment of taught units.
A component of this is the time that you spend in class, in contact with the teaching staff, which includes activities such as lectures, laboratories, tutorials and fieldwork. Some of this activity may be online and could consist of activity that is synchronous (using real-time environments such as Blackboard Collaborate) or asynchronous (using tools such as tutor moderated discussion forums, blogs or wikis).
In some programmes there are field courses and/or placements that will take place in concentrated periods of time.
Outside scheduled activities you are expected to pursue your own independent learning to build your knowledge and understanding of the subjects you are studying. Such independent activities include, reviewing lecture material, reading textbooks, working on examples sheets, completing coursework, writing up laboratory notes, preparing for in-class progress tests and revising for examinations.
We recognise that many students undertake paid employment. To achieve a sensible balance between work and study, you are advised to undertake paid work for no more than 15 hours per week in term-time.
Professional Programmes
Many undergraduates in the Faculty of Health Sciences will be following the professional programmes of:
For these professional programmes, full time attendance is compulsory unless absence is formally approved. Academic activities are timetabled throughout the 5-day week and student workload is around 40 hours per week on average. Where possible, students in the early years are permitted Wednesday afternoons for sport and extra-curriculum activities. This may not be available in later years of professional programmes as when a student progresses through the curricula there is an increasing exposure to clinical and professional activities. Students in clinic or on placements may need to stay later than core times of 08.00 – 18.00 or even overnight to observe out-of-hours activities. This increasing exposure to clinical activities means that students on these professional programmes often have longer term dates than the University standard. Individual years within programmes are likely to vary in length (for example because of the timings of placements) and further information on this will be found in individual programme regulations. Another important point to note is that many of the assessments sit outside of the standard University examination timetable and are likely to be more frequent meaning that students will more oftentimes be engaged in revision activities and self-directed learning.

Faculty Assessment and Feedback Statement for Undergraduate Students. University of Bristol access only.
The film and television curriculum has developed a balance of historical and aesthetic enquiry with creative and practical work in a way that is distinctive to the University of Bristol. This combination has emerged out of the University’s long-standing tradition of film-related teaching (previously as part of the Drama programme). The undergraduate curriculum outlined in this document provides an in-depth investigation of film and television aesthetics and history alongside the acquisition and development of filmmaking skills. These points of emphasis, and this overall trajectory, develop and extend the successful approaches that already characterise the teaching of film and television at Bristol.
The English Department accepts annually a large number of Study Abroad Programme students (especially from the USA, but also from elsewhere overseas), and has special links under the ERASMUS scheme with the University of Paris-Sorbonne. The Department conducts Joint Honours programmes with Philosophy and Classical Studies, and welcomes Medical students on the Intercalating BA in Medical Humanities. There will also be an English pathway in the new Liberal Arts degree programme.
