The MLitt in Creative Writing is a one-year taught programme run by the School of English. The course consists of two semesters with taught components followed by an individual creative writing project taking place over the whole year, but with particular focus during the last three months. Encourages critical thinking and writing – and the recognition of innate strengths and potential – in either poetry or prose and emphasises the necessity of broad and well-informed reading in the development of an original ‘voice’. Helps to build an awareness of creative industry norms and expectations as well as the potential in different areas, including genre and cross-genre work.One year full time
Students need a good 2.1 Honours undergraduate degree. However, a candidate who demonstrates outstanding writing abilities may be accepted on the basis of an equivalent qualification (for example, a body of published work or a relevant professional qualification), but such cases are entirely at the discretion of staff and require decanal approval.
