BA (Hons) Creative Studies and English Language

This course is aimed at students who want to study Creative Studies (combining some study of: creative writing, film studies, theatre studies, media and journalism studies) with the study of English Language. This degree will equip you with a lively grounding in the practical and critical skills required in these connected fields. The course offers a balance of practical and critical tasks, and you will be introduced to creative practice studies and the critical study of creative practices in combination with a study of English Language. In Creative Studies you will explore a variety of creative forms, specialising increasingly as you progress through the degree in that form you find most interesting and rewarding (e.g. film, creative writing, theatre and drama, media or new media, journalism). In English Language, modules range from speech and language acquisition, to forensic linguistics and bilingualism to discussions of globalisation and the English Language.
