Film & Television Studies

Student testimonials

"Having completed an undergraduate degree with the Film and Television studies at Glasgow University, and currently undertaking a M. Litt., I feel I am in a position to highly recommend the department to anyone interested in pursuing an academic career in Film and Television studies. Over the course of the five years I’ve been here the courses have been as consistently interesting as the lecturers and tutors have been engaging and inspiring. Complemented by excellent facilities the film and television department at Glasgow is a stimulating environment which has helped me develop my interest in the field as well as helping me find where my specific interests lie."

"While doing my M.Litt. in Film and Television Studies I was impressed by how it allows students to discover and explore their own research interests by exposing them to a wide range of theoretical material and film and television texts.  Being from Canada, I was concerned with having a lack of knowledge about British media and cultural policy.
However the program's inter-disciplinary structure, its international reach and its strong system of support in terms of fellow students and the teaching faculty dispelled all my concerns.  Ultimately my positive experience with the M.Litt. program was a leading factor in my decision to continue on with my PhD study in Film and Television Studies at the University of Glasgow."
