Overview

About the programme

During the English - Creative Writing program of Georgia College students take a wide range of courses in English and American literature, including survey, genre, and major-figure courses, as well as survey courses in world literature. Courses in creative and expository writing, the history and structure of the language, critical theory, and composition theory help students sharpen their critical awareness, encourage clarity of thought and expression, and stimulate and develop the creative imagination. In short, the degree in English develops critical thinkers and effective communicators, people whose skills are applicable in a wide range of careers including education, publishing, writing, information and research, media, politics and public service.

As a student with a Creative Writing concentration, your time in the program will be dedicated to the practice of imaginative creation, reflective revision and intellectual engagement with both published literary works and the works of one’s peers. English majors in the Creative Writing concentration develop not only the critical skills of the traditional English and Literature major but also the creative artistic skills of the literary author.
