Course programme

Course Content
  • Year 1

    Teaching is organised in units that typically involve lectures, seminars and practical/tutorial work. Most units are assessed by a mixture of coursework and formal examination, although there are a number of units that are assessed by coursework only.

    In each year of full-time study, you will take 120 credits, made up of a number of units which are worth 30 credits each.

    In Year 1 you will take 60 credits of core units from each of your two subjects.

    You will study both of your combined honours subjects equally. The Film and Television studies modules will consider key critical and theoretical issues, including option units on classical Hollywood cinema and an

  • Year 2

    In Year 2 you can choose the balance of your two subjects:

    Equal study 60 credits from each of your subjects

    Major/minor study 90 credits from the major subject and 30 credits from the minor subject.

    The Business modules will develop your knowledge and skills to enable you to deal with practical problems including marketing concepts and planning, and managing in organisations.

  • Year 3

    In your final year you can continue with the equal or major/minor route you have chosen in Year 2 or you can choose from the following options:

    If you have chosen equal study in Year 2 you can choose major/minor study in Year 3.

    If you have chosen major/minor study in Year 2, in most subject areas you can choose units completely in your major subject in Year 3. This option is called named route study and leads to a single subject degree. See below for a list of available named route degrees.

    All final year Combined Honours students must complete a directed project, dissertation or independent study unit. If you take equal study you can choose this unit in any of the two subject areas; if you take major/minor study, you will take this unit as part of your major subject.

    The Business modules will focus on strategic approach to business strategy, developing diagnostic techniques appropriate to the complexities of organisational life including managing in a knowledge economy, and strategic management.
