MA Creative Writing
We aim to give you a professional approach to editing, revising and critiquing creative work.
Our Creative Writing MFA is ideal if you are seeking to consolidate and develop your writing knowledge and skills, and work towards the completion of a full-length original manuscript.
Over the course of the whole degree you will learn how to plan, research and complete a full-length manuscript in your chosen form (fiction, genre fiction, non-fiction) for potential publication.
Our module on creative writing pedagogy offers a foundation for understanding how storytelling and creative writing can be taught in different educational settings.
You will learn how to read and think as a writer and explore the choices faced and decisions taken by writers. Regular workshops and bespoke reading lists will serve to inform and enrich your own work.
You can select to apply for one of the available exit points for this course.
Students from our Creative Writing master's programmes have been published by Penguin Random House, HarperCollins, Faber, Pan Macmillan, Hachette, and many others.
You will learn about the writing business, involving different forms and requirements of print and electronic publication, and the role of editors, agents and publishers. This includes how to present and advertise your creative work.
You will embrace learning about all aspects of creative writing and gain a comprehensive understanding of the business and culture of writing.
