Course summary
Choose your own path through the course, focusing either on creative or literary critical writing, or a combination of both.
Youll work with practising authors, poets, and playwrights – as well as leaders in the field of literary criticism – to develop your own distinctive voice. Youll develop as a writer, not only in the classroom, but in the world, and youll be advised on the routes you can take to publication. Modules with a more academic focus allow you to engage with literary theory and academic studies of influential writers work.
Our students have the opportunity to edit and produce the annual university anthology and our close links with Cheltenham Festivals may offer performance opportunities throughout the year.
