Our faculty includes published and award-winning authors, and some of the world’s foremost authorities on Arthurian Literature, early modern literature, the history of the book, and Welsh writing in English.
You’ll be encouraged to think about literature as both a reader and writer. Reading and writing many different forms, we'll look at traditional through to experimental forms of literatures. You’ll take modules that explore novels, short fiction, non-fiction, flash or micro fictions, hybrid forms, poetry, or the challenges of writing with AI, creatively and professionally.
Studying this degree in English Literature and Creative Writing, will see you join a welcoming, supportive community. Our goal is to introduce you to new writers, as well as known texts, fostering a holistic understanding of the creative process and the intricate relationship between author and audience.

Off campus, Bangor’s vibrant local arts and culture scene includes a local theatre, cinema and poetry groups who hold events across the city.
