School of English, Film, Theatre, and Media Studies

Welcome to the School of English, Film, Theatre, and Media Studies (SEFTMS)

Our School is made up of four separate programmes, but there are close links between them, for the four disciplines share a common focus on the creation, production and interpretation of texts, whether written, spoken, theatrical, cinematic, televised, or electronic.
