Course summary
This course includes a foundation year - ideal if you need additional preparation or if you don't have sufficient grades to join Year 1 of a degree. Course details: The BA (Hons) English and Creative Writing (with Foundation Year) degree course is an excellent foundation for a career in writing, editing or publishing. As a writer, you develop a strong feeling for language and the linguistic tools available to you. You extend your boundaries and stretch yourself to refine your writing technique. Alongside studying topics such as romantic and Victorian literature, modernism, postmodernism and postcolonial writing, you have the opportunity to practise your creativity in a number of forms, contexts and genres. You gain a solid understanding of creative-critical approaches, and develop personal and professional skills which are greatly valued by employers. After the course: Graduates are well prepared to work as editors and writers in publishing houses or freelance writers for the creative industries. Other potential career paths include journalism, media and communication, retail management, arts administration, civil service, education, performing arts and the law. For those interested in extending their studies, we offer four MA degrees: in English, creative writing, creative writing (online) and creative writing and wellbeing (online).
