MRes Storytelling

... United Kingdom
... University of Chester

Course Overview

The Department of English offers expertise in a variety of writers and eras – including in the practice of creative writing and in a wide range of literary specialisms – which will facilitate your exploration of your own interests in particular forms of narrative and storytelling.

You will work alongside Storyhouse staff, who are committed to widening access to the magic of storytelling within the community of Chester. We also recognize the importance of pastoral support and offer a supportive environment in which to learn and study.

The MRes in Storytelling is an excellent opportunity for those applicants thinking of pursuing Ph.D. study at a later date, as it offers a grounding in the level of independent research and reflective writing and thinking that is central to PhD study.

We are here to help you plan your future, make the most of your time at University, and to enhance your employability. We provide access to part-time jobs, and extra-curricular employability-enhancing workshops and offer practical one-to-one help with career planning, including help with CVs, applications, and mock interviews. We also deliver group sessions on career planning within each course and we have a wide range of extensive information covering graduate jobs and postgraduate study.

Students and graduates of the University of Chester can use our services free of charge for up to two years after graduating.
