MA Creative Writing

... United Kingdom
... Teesside University

Course Overview

MA Creative Writing graduates go on to various professions and careers. Apart from the more obvious routes of publishing, editing and freelance writing, many work in the wider creative industries (television, journalism, new media) or workplaces requiring advanced writing skills.

The practical and flexible design of the course means that it is also highly suited to teachers; writers developing their teaching and workshopping skills to work in the community; and those using writing in therapy, healthcare and other professional settings.

If your job has a requirement to work on live briefs and projects with an imaginative or research element, you will also find the transferable skills offered by this MA a natural fit.

Although the course will help you if you want to develop a career using writing, many students take our MA to extend their skills for their personal development and fulfilment.

General Eligibility
