Passion for language, literature and creative writing can lead to exciting careers in publishing, advertising, teaching, journalism and more. * Sharpen your writing skills, free your imagination, let your creative juices flow and be inspired in the company of poets, playwrights, publishers, screenwriters and novelists. * This course is ideal if you want to study creative writing alongside English literature and language. * Embark on a career as a professional writer, or to go into more traditional careers linked to English studies such as marketing, publishing or teaching.
Key course benefits* This course combines stylistics, language and literary theory with creative practice, to help you understand the theories behind writing, to understand your writing style and voice, and to improve your understanding of how language is used in society. It also offers a vocational element.* Our course combines humanities with creative freedom, allowing you to explore emerging genres such as video game narratives and graphic storytelling. It has innovative, open and participatory content that includes digital streamed performances and online workshops pitched at schools.* It has global student collaborations focusing on intercultural narration, and includes digital entrepreneurship, which is the monetising of creative work via online streaming platforms and social media, meaning that students work towards publication-ready outputs.* We have significant links with a wide variety of employers and media practitioners, such as Writing West Midlands and Theatre Absolute, many of whom offer professional experience opportunities*. * There are opportunities to participate in an exciting range of educational and cultural field trips*, for example, to view modern adaptations of Shakespeare’s work at the Royal Shakespeare Theatre Company (RSC) in Stratford-upon-Avon. There may be some additional costs for optional trips and opportunities, and such trips may also be subject to availability.*For further information please check the course page on the Coventry University website
