Choosing our MA Creative Writing course will sharpen and refine your research and writing abilities. Whether prose or poetry, you’ll engage with theory, practice and research that encourages lateral thought and lays the groundwork for your own ideas to develop and mature. It could be that you arrive with an existing project in mind, but actually finish the course having been inspired by your research, with something very different and more technically impressive. This is where the experience of our published writers and academics comes into its own, including our Distinguished Writer in Residence and Poet in Residence. You will also deepen your awareness and understanding of the cultural, literary and theoretical history of text production.
