About English And Creative Writing in University of Salford

This degree gives you the opportunity to produce your own creative writing while studying challenging works of literature.

Guided by published experts, you will discover your talents in poetry, prose fiction, screenplay, playwriting and more. You can choose your focus and specialize in the area of most interest to you – with fields as diverse as children’s fiction, contemporary poetry, fantasy fiction, or conceptual art.

Creative Writing is combined with the study of English Literature, where an understanding of literary history and contemporary cultural issues will feed your creative practice.

Your teachers will be practising poets, novelists, screenwriters and artists. You will have opportunities to see your work performed, to enjoy the community of open mic nights, and to publish your work in our online journal and class blogs.
