Screenwriting Study Abroad Programs | GoAbroad.com

While studying screenwriting abroad, it would be a good idea to enroll in a variety of courses focused on the film and television culture of the country. This will get you thinking outside of the box and offer you valuable global perspective on the culture of your own country’s entertainment industry. While entertainment is certainly becoming more global as our world becomes more connected, many countries hold on to a distinct pride and ethic in the art of on-screen entertainment. Film History, Entertainment Business, Screenwriting Mechanics, and even delving into local Literature will all be good areas where to expand your knowledge of the field.

Of course the specific classes that will be offered is largely dependent on the country where you study screenwriting abroad and the type of program you go through. Some programs will facilitate your enrollment in a local university, where you will have full access to the course catalogue to make your own choices. Others will set you up at a small international academic institution, often a satellite of the program provider itself. Many such course listings, while more narrow in breadth, will feature at least one class on the film or entertainment culture of the country.

Screenwriting study abroad programs are commonly offered during any term, therefore when and for how long you study abroad is entirely up to you, although it is always a good idea to check in with your home university’s screenwriting department to make sure that timing works out and academic credit will transfer. Planning this out in advance will relieve a great amount of stress before you even embark on your trip!
