The MA English Literature and Creative Writing is a rewarding taught degree taught by published writers and researchers. The course provides you with the perfect opportunity to combine your love of studying literature with the ambition to write your own.
Our English Literature modules take you on an exhilarating literary journey using texts from the eighteenth century to the present day. Drawing on research expertise from the Romantic period to contemporary literature we explore a range of literary forms and delve into subjects such as historical and contemporary representations of place, the politics of genre fiction, and the representation of gender and sexuality.

Throughout the programme you will have opportunities to explore multiple genres, attend regular peer workshops, learn from industry experts and hone your craft. Our wider academic community is dynamic so you will also have the chance to take part in additional activities which can include, but are not limited to, open mics, guest speakers, archive and museum visits, poetry readings and more.
