The MA Creative Writing at Metropolitan College, is considered to be one of the best postgraduate programmes in Creative Writing worldwide. In an environment of collaboration and interaction that revolves around creative writing, the programme’s goal is to provide students with insightful, sometimes demanding, but always supportive feedback to create the right conditions for writing. The MA Creative Writing is offered in collaboration with the British Oxford Brookes University and has received international recognition. In particular, Philip Pullman, English author of the popular trilogy His Dark Materials, has stated: “Among the Creative Writing programmes that I have seen – and I have seen quite a lot of them – the one at Oxford Brookes is certainly one of the best”.
The MA Creative Writing covers a wide range of Creative Writing genres, such as poetry, fiction, theatre, TV script, film script, biography, etc., even completely personal or non-mainstream literary genres. The academic team consists of popular, award-winning active authors (Miranta Vatikioti, Constantina Korevanti, Christos Kithreotis, Giannis Baskozos, Christos Oikonomou, Kallia Papadaki) who will initiate student in the “tricks of the trade”, in order to produce publication-worthy writing. They are also responsible for providing feedback in every class so that students can have an idea of how their writing style is evolving.
The curriculum prioritises practice over theory, and it is entirely focused on the production of creative writing. Through ongoing workshops, every student has the opportunity to be heard and to listen, to be read and to read, joining forces with their teachers and fellow students in a productive manner.
At the same time, by virtue of the “How to make a living from creative writing” initiative, the MA Creative Writing organises an annual cycle of workshops to enhance the employment skills bestowed by creative writing (in advertising, public speaking, journalism, editing etc.). Also, every student has the opportunity to be directly evaluated by leading publishers.
The ultimate goal of the programme is to provide aspiring writers with the key to unlock the gates to literary success.
