Course summary

Taking Film and Sociology at Lancaster gives you the opportunity to learn from academics at the Lancaster Institute for the Contemporary Arts and our Sociology Department.Film combines particularly well with Sociology because it examines cinema's role as a major contemporary cultural form that influences, reflects and shapes social values and beliefs. You鈥檒l examine cinema鈥檚 aesthetic importance in the context of an increasingly visual and media-oriented culture, while investigating the connections between contemporary art, theatre, music and film.You鈥檒l be able to select from a wide range of options in both disciplines to complement your core modules 鈥� see the course structure tab for more information. Lancaster鈥檚 film programme is academic rather than vocational, but you will have the opportunity at each year of the course to make your own digital film using the University鈥檚 state-of-the-art equipment.


Your Placement Year

Sometimes known as a year in industry, your placement year will take place between your second and final year of study and this will extend your degree to four years.A placement year is an excellent way to...
鈥� try out a role that you may be interested in as a career path
鈥� start to build your professional network (some placement students are offered permanent roles to return to after they graduate)
鈥� develop skills, knowledge and experience to put you ahead of the field when you graduateYou'll spend your third year in a paid, graduate-level position, where you鈥檒l work for between nine and twelve months in the type of role that you might be considering for after you graduate. A very wide range of companies and organisations offer placements across all sectors. As a full-time employee, you鈥檒l have a detailed job description with specific responsibilities and opportunities to access training and development, the same as other employees.Our Careers and Placements Team will help you to secure a suitable placement with expert advice and resources, such as creating an effective CV, and tips for applications and interviews. You will still be a Lancaster University student during your placement and we鈥檒l keep in touch to check how you are getting on.The university will use all reasonable effort to support you to find a suitable placement for your studies. While a placement role may not be available in a field or organisation that is directly related to your academic studies or career aspirations, all offer valuable experience of working at a graduate level and gaining a range of professional skills.If you are unsuccessful in securing a suitable placement for your third year, you will be able to transfer to the equivalent non-placement degree scheme and continue with your studies at Lancaster, finishing your degree after your third year.
