Course summary

Why this course?Our approach to the English & Creative writing course is innovative, modern and friendly, giving you a comprehensive understanding of English literature as a core basis for your creative work. You'll have the opportunity to work with award-winning scholars and creative writers.The emphasis is on helping you develop a range of skills to grow your future career, including textual analysis and interpretation. With us, you can study everything from poetry, the novel and drama (stage, screen, and radio) as you would expect on an English and Creative Writing degree, but in addition, at Strathclyde, we offer the opportunity to use creative writing skills as part of your approach to literary criticism.Education is essential if you wish to study initial teacher education courses. We offer you the chance to develop knowledge of the education systems of Scotland and beyond, looking at issues including policy, social justice, equity and inclusion.Combining education with other subjects provides opportunities for those who wish to work in professions associated with education, but who don't wish necessarily to become teachers. We offer a wide range of options, many of them unique in the UK, reflecting our staff interests and expertise.Please note that this course doesn't allow you to qualify as a teacher, though joint honours Education graduates will be able to explore postgraduate routes into teaching careers (via the PGDE).AssessmentEnglish & Creative WritingMost classes are assessed by a mixture of essays or other written work. For some classes there are exams, and in some cases, oral work is assessed.EducationIn Year 1, you're supported in learning about academic reading, writing and referencing - skills that will help you become a successful undergraduate. Through peer support we encourage you to develop your own assessment skills and learn from each other. During the course, tutorials and presentations are assessed and feedback provided before you submit work for formal assessment.
