Bachelor of Arts in English Literature with Creative Writing

Program Overview

This course offers you a chance to blend creative and critical approaches to literature. You can study literature from Old English to the contemporary period, including American and postcolonial literature and world theatre. You’ll produce creative work across genres, including fiction, poetry, plays, life writing, screenplays, short fiction and/or travel accounts.

This degree combines creativity with critical thinking, developing transferable skills in research, communication, and project management which are highly regarded by employers.

The School includes leading poets and academics who are experienced creative writers. You’ll be taught by researchers of international significance whose expertise spans the historical and geographical spheres of English literary tradition.

Our alumni and former staff include founding figures of African national literatures Wole Soyinka and Ngugi wa Thiong’o, poets of great acclaim such as Geoffrey Hill and our current Professor of Poetry Simon Armitage, and JRR Tolkien, the leading fantasy writer of all time.
