The MA Creative Writing (Distance Learning) course is taught throughout by tutors who are both practicing creative writers and experienced teachers of creative writing at postgraduate level. The emphasis is on developing practical writing skills and techniques whilst gaining an understanding of your own work within a critical context and framework. There are four 30-credit taught modules plus the Creative Writing Project (60 credit), which is the final portfolio of the creative writing. Each module offers students the opportunities to experiment and develop their interests, whether these are in prose fiction, poetry, creative life writing, dramatic writing and screen writing or in using writing to work with people in personal and professional development and healthcare settings.
