Creative Writing and English Literature, BA (Hons)

At the University of East Anglia (UEA), our Creative Writing and English Literature programme offers an ideal environment to cultivate your creative talents alongside a rigorous study of literature. From the outset, students engage in exploring fiction, poetry, and scriptwriting, fostering discussions on textual creation and sharing work within a supportive community. Guided practices outside the classroom help develop a sustainable writing routine, while the curriculum balances creative writing with English Literature, allowing exploration of diverse genres, from collaborative projects and podcasting to apocalyptic fiction.Based in the UK's premier Creative Writing department within UEA's School of Literature, Drama and Creative Writing, students access exceptional resources, including the Media Suite, Egg Box publishing, the British Archive for Contemporary Writing, and the Sainsbury Centre. Situated in Norwich—a UNESCO City of Literature—participants gain professional skills through industry interactions, preparing for careers in publishing, journalism, advertising, or authorship.
