MA in Creative Writing

Our Creative Writing Masters degree consists of four core modules and a Major Project. The core modules invite you to consider what it means to write novels and to be a writer, and to develop your writerly identity and presentational skills through consideration of form and structure across multiple genres.

There are additionally two workshop-based modules that combine exercises to sharpen your technique with practical advice and discussion of example texts.

The Masters Major Project will give you the opportunity to develop a piece of writing in depth, alongside a critical commentary.

The work might be part of a longer fiction project such as a novel or screenplay, or a collection of short stories or poems. This is an opportunity to showcase your work and consider how to present it to agents and publishers.
