Program Description

Build a future by studying in the UK, with a pathway course at Kaplan International College (KIC) London. Situated in the world’s top academic city (QS Best Student Cities 2019), the College will prepare students for a university degree, and for a successful career.

Study at one of the most respected international colleges in London, and progress to one of 8 universities, including the University of Bristol.

The University of Bristol is a highly ranked Russell Group university with a fantastic reputation. Students will join a global community of students from more than 150 countries, and enjoy life in one of the UK’s most exciting cities.

The University of Bristol has a long history of innovation in the study of film and television. In the late 1960s Professor George Brandt introduced film and television studies to the University curriculum and the subject has been taught at Bristol ever since.

In the Department of Film and Television, guided by leading scholars and practitioners, students will explore the history of film and television, considering theoretical perspectives and appreciating how films are made. They will also engage in practical film-making activities.

The curriculum progresses from introductory units, which use specific topics to teach students how to analyse film and television, to more advanced units. These cover significant historical movements, contemporary practices and the theoretical concepts that underpin, inform and shape film and television.

As well as being trained in scholarly investigation and critical thinking, students will work collaboratively in groups and develop skills relevant to practical film making. Throughout their studies they will learn from a variety of film and television professionals and in the final year they will have the chance to undertake a placement in the creative industries.
