MA Creative Writing

... United Kingdom
... De Montfort University

Course Overview

The Creative Writing MA is a practice-led program, giving you the chance to develop your writing in chosen areas or experiment with new forms and genres through exploratory writing exercises and craft challenges. The program is designed to develop your writing practice in both research and professional contexts and so you will follow both craft and writing industry-focused modules. You will have the opportunity to graduate with an advanced understanding of the professional landscape and how to use the skills you have acquired to forge a career in a range of contexts. The taught modules are divided into three areas. Researching as a Writer involves exploring practice research methodologies and research skills, giving you a toolbox for discussion of your practice from a theoretical perspective. Developing Writing covers a range of genre opportunities and exploratory writing tasks while Writing Ecosystems focuses on networking, performance, manuscript presentation, and publishing advice. The program culminates in a dissertation in which you will work independently on an extended creative writing project in a form or genre of your choice, with tutor guidance and feedback. You will shape and grow projects to a professional standard, while also learning how to provide a theoretical basis to discuss and conceptualize your practice.
