Course Overview

The BA (Hons) Screenwriting course at the University of Suffolk (UoS) is the perfect way to launch an exciting career writing for the big (or not so big) screen. Here at UoS, we specialize in writing for film and television. Our dedicated tutors and visiting lecturers are award-winning screenwriters and filmmakers, who provide expertise, practical techniques, and insider knowledge of the film and TV industry. You will receive unparalleled personal support and rigorous training to ensure that you graduate with all the skills and confidence you need to embark on a career as a professional screenwriter. The degree will teach you how to write compelling and highly professional scripts for film, television, and digital platforms. With assignments designed to mirror current industry practice throughout, we will show you how to nurture a story from an initial idea to a polished final draft by using key development documents such as loglines, premises, character profiles, synopses, step-outlines, and treatments. Along the way, our small workshop sizes ensure that you receive substantial and frequent feedback on your writing. You will also learn from some of the greatest screenplays ever written and hone your critical skills by evaluating your own and other students' scripts.
