American Studies and Film Studies (with a study abroad year) BA (Hons) - Clearing

By combining American Studies and Film Studies, you’ll link together a wide range of interesting topics – from the birth of celebrity culture to Hollywood as an industry. You'll benefit from specialised resources including our expansive film library and the Attenborough Centre for the Creative Arts. You’ll learn from leading experts about challenging works ranging from DW Griffiths’s Birth of a Nation to Andy Warhol’s Blow Job. And you’ll have access to dedicated media laboratories, film and sound studios, and an in-house DVD library of over 5,000 films and TV programmes. Plus, by spending a year abroad, you’ll not only study America, but you’ll experience it too. We’re proud to have more prestigious American partner institutions – including UC Berkeley and Georgetown – than any other programme in England.
