Bachelor of Arts (Honours) - English with Creative Writing (Q3W8)

Would student love to see their name in print? Are they curious about the creative industries? Or maybe there’s a poem or novel in them that's waiting to come out?

If they want to develop their creative work alongside studying a broad range of English literature, language and drama, this course is for them.

They’ll write both fiction and poetry, exploring different forms and genres along the way, including environmental and political poetics, creative non-fiction, flash fiction and short stories. The work in English studies will strengthen their creative writing. Then, in their second and third years, there’s flexibility to specialize in the areas they enjoy most, including digital storytelling.

They’ll spend two thirds of their time on English studies, and one third on creative writing. This includes learning about the process of writing and publishing from expert staff who are published poets and authors themselves. We also host guest talks from award-winning writers, meaning inspiration is never far away.
