The Open University short courses

Register today for one of our three, six-week online film courses produced in collaboration with the Open University.

Involving academics from multiple disciplines and the BFI’s own curators, these courses are designed to encourage students to engage in flexible learning with regular activities and debate.

Enriched with fascinating audio and video materials, many from the collections of the BFI National Archive, these courses are taught through the OU’s learning platform and are available worldwide.

UK-based students will also enjoy three months complimentary access to BFI Player.

Registrations for the February 2025 modules close on Thursday 23 January 2025.
