Course Details

Overview

We welcome students who are enthusiastic about their creative writing, committed to developing existing strengths and excited about cultivating new ones. You will learn from successful published writers and join a creative and passionate community of writers.

Our programme is practice-based: students learn by doing. Workshops involve collaborative learning, giving and receiving feedback, drafting, revision and critical reflection. Industry-focused skills are embedded throughout the curriculum.

We support our students to become confident writers with the tools to professionally promote, present and publish their work.

Our innovative thematic course structure keeps you working across different forms and styles throughout the programme – and giving you plenty of choice to focus on what you want to develop for assessment.

Uniquely, alongside these themed modules, each year offers the opportunity to choose your own long project. What about that crime screenplay you’ve dreamt of writing? Or that Fantasy novel that’s kept you awake at night?

Key features

Benefit from Education 2030, where a simplified ‘block learning’ timetable means you will study one subject at a time and have more time to engage with your learning, receive faster feedback and enjoy a better study-life balance.

You’ll learn from successful published writers and become part of a creative and passionate community of writers.

You’ll join a programme that is uniquely organised by theme and supports you to develop your skills in a wide range of writing practices, for example, fiction, poetry, memoir, screenwriting, and digital writing.

We’ll encourage you to join regional writing networks, participate in spoken word events, and perform and publish your work through book fairs and festivals, including DMU's annual States of Independence book festival.

You’ll work beyond classroom boundaries in a variety of stimulating settings to promote creativity, including Leicester Gallery at DMU, local museums and landmarks, DMU’s Special Collections archive and ghost story workshops in a deconsecrated chapel.

You can select a route through this degree in Drama, Education, English Language, English Literature, Film, History, Journalism or Media.
