Bachelor of Arts (Hons) in Creative and Professional Writing and English with Foundation Year
Program Overview
The Creative and Professional Writing and English integrated joint provides an opportunity for you to develop your own talent for writing, alongside a disciplined engagement with English literature and language.
The Foundation year prepares students for university level study. Successful completion of our Foundation course permits access to any of our Humanities or Media BA (Hons) degree courses, which include English, English Language, Creative Writing, Linguistics, Media, Philosophy and Religious Studies — many of which can be taken singly as specialist degrees or together as ‘joint’ degree routes. The Foundation year begins with modules aimed at providing transferable study skills and then, in the second semester, gives students the opportunity to study more specialist modules, with a focus on various aspects of Humanities and Media.
The degree programme offers a supported, stimulating and multicultural environment in which you can create, analyse and interpret different forms and styles of writing. The study of Creative and Professional Writing with English will help students to communicate more effectively in writing, and enable them to enhance their own creative and critical judgement. You will develop a range of subject specific and transferable skills, including higher order conceptual and communication skills, enterprise, digital literacy and IT awareness, all of which are of immense value in graduate employment.
What happens on the course?
Your writing modules will fall broadly into three categories: Craft of Writing modules, Reading as a Writer modules, and Working as a Writer modules. Craft modules focus on you as a writer and are designed to help you explore your creative imagination whilst developing the skills required to express it. Reading as a Writer modules are designed teach you how to read with an eye for technique: the emphasis here will be on what you can learn from other writers across a spectrum of styles and genres. Working as a Writer modules have a vocational dimension and offer the opportunity to develop skills that will enhance your employability as a writer.
The English modules that form part of this programme offer a diversity of approaches to literature and language. At Year One they provide a stimulating introduction to the study of English, teaching the knowledge and skills you will require in order to study the topic at degree level. At Years Two and Three modules become more specific, taking a cutting edge critical approach to such topics as: literary influence and the canon, literary theory, literature and class, American literature, Victorian literature, literature and travel, sex gender and language, and modernism.
