BA (Honours) Arts and Humanities (Creative Writing)

The degree starts by developing your understanding of our world through various perspectives, periods, and subjects – including creative writing. You’ll then take two specialist creative writing modules, exploring a range of approaches to writing. You will develop your writing skills in several genres including fiction; poetry; life writing; and scriptwriting for film, radio, and stage. Through being supported to develop your pieces of writing, and by engagement with the module materials, you will develop important skills in complex argument and critical commentary.

Alongside your study of creative writing, you can also study a second specialism from art history, classical studies, English language, history, modern languages, music, philosophy, and religious studies. This will entitle you to include both subjects in the name of your degree or complete your degree with modules chosen from a wide range of options.

• Specialise in creative writing within a broad and flexible arts and humanities degree

• Develop and reflect on your writing practice

• Have the opportunity to develop a project based on independent study

• Develop a range of skills that will be valuable in the workplace and to further study

There are no formal entry requirements for this qualification.
