Course summary
Storytelling is part of every culture and reveals much about a persons lived experience, values and aspirations within a given time. If reading is a pleasure and creative writing very much a part of you, then an English degree with creative writing might appeal. If youre ready to explore more widely, think more deeply and consider how you, as a reader, are placed in relation to a text and how that affects your interpretation, youve come to the right place. Brunel offers one of the most highly regarded creative writing courses in the UK, with many staff members active as novelists, writers for performance, or as cultural critics. Through them you will learn and practice the fundamentals of writing in a variety of forms including poetry and film. After a first year of introductory writing modules with options in literature to develop your critical reading, your exploration in English and creative writing is very much down to your own interests. In years two and three a wealth of optional modules await you, covering every period and genre in literature from Shakespeare to Austen, comedy to horror and world literature, alongside further writing options in journalism and modern fiction. Throughout your course you will be encouraged to express your own thoughts and creativity in your coursework and seminars, which will help you to grow as a critic and writer. English with Creative Writing BA will equip you with personal skills employers prize in graduates - exceptional written and verbal communication and the ability to work collaboratively in teams. At Brunel you will be able to develop these in abundance.Careers and your futureSeveral Brunel graduates of creative writing have gone onto publish their own work, but youll be well equipped for any role where written English is a central feature including copywriting or scriptwriting for radio or television.Your future doesnt have to be in publishing, writing or poetry unless you want it to be, theres so much you can do with an English and Creative Writing BA. Brunel graduates fit just as easily into other career environments, and the opportunity of doing a placement year to gain experience in a job role and industry sector will be a distinct advantage.
