The programme provides the students with a basic introduction to the subject area, and is suitable for those who perhaps would like to continue studying within this area or who wish to take the programme as a supplement to previous or future education or work experience.
The one-year programme corresponds to the 1st academic year of the Bachelor’s degree programme in Film and Television, and the students have the option of applying directly for admission to the 2nd year of the Bachelor’s degree programme. The programme does not give students prior admission rights to the practical film and television programmes, but could be useful for those who are not admitted to these programmes and who would like to acquire more competence before making another application.

The programme consists of the following courses (chronologically): Film history (15 credits), Documentary (15 credits), Visual analysis (15 credits) and Television genre (15 credits). Together, these courses amount to the separate One-year programme in Film and Television Science and the compulsory first academic year of the Bachelor’s degree programme in Visual Culture. The different courses thereby form the basis for specialisation courses which are offered in the 2nd and 3rd academic year.
