English and Creative Writing (Hons) Leeds Trinity University

Overview

You can develop your key skills in English and Creative Writing, with options to study English Language and Linguistics.

Working with published writers and subject specialists, you'll learn how to communicate and create for both professional purposes and pleasure. The creative writing workshops will teach you how to give and receive constructive criticism about writing. You’ll be introduced to speech-writing and the power of words, as well as learning how to write your own life story and the stories of others.

Where will your words take you? English graduates have a cultural impact on the world we live in through their writing, from books and films to TV and news. 

English graduates produced A Handmaid’s Tale and Why I’m No Longer Talking to White People about Race, both books of profound cultural impact.
