The University of Hertfordshire MA in Creative Writing offers you the opportunity to develop your creative, critical and professional writing skills in a stimulating and supportive environment.
Through writing workshops and intensive tutorial-based supervision our teaching staff – all established authors themselves – will help you improve your own writing as you explore the advanced craft, theory and techniques of poetry, prose and drama.
Whether you have an unfinished novel you’re passionate about or want to learn how to write powerful dialogue or create memorable characters, this MA Creative Writing offers a range of modules that give you both literary context and practical professional guidance.
In all modules you will be taught by lecturers who are leading writers whose work encompasses a wide range of approaches and styles and who bridge the gap between creative and academic approaches in their fields.
