B.sc Creative Writing in University of Roehampton

As you explore the technical craft and process of writing, you'll develop your skills as a writer, as well as other key abilities such as research and critical analysis.

This is one of the longest-established creative writing degree courses in London and one of only a few courses in the UK to offer innovative fiction and poetry, copywriting and a strong non-fiction strand.

Recent examples of the wide-ranging modules we offer include Travel Writing (with an opportunity to study abroad), Screenwriting, Publishing from Book to Internet, and the History, Theory and Performance of Stand-up Comedy.

While studying writing, and honing your own writing abilities, you will also acquire skills you’ll need to succeed in your career, with modules on how to write to industry representatives, and excellent career resources.

Through our thriving partnerships with Wimbledon Bookfest, Barnes Children's Literature Festival and with local schools in London and the south east, you’ll have the chance to volunteer or undertake paid work experience during your time with us. We also have our in-house publishing imprint, Fincham Press, meaning you could see your work published or be involved in publishing other people’s work.

Roehampton has a vibrant research culture and a rolling programme of fellowships. Special workshops and seminars are organised every year, with industry professionals such as editors, screenwriters, graphic novelists and published authors. Our annual Creative Writing Day Soiree is another popular event, being a student-organised evening of readings from current students, alumni and industry guests – who will also be sharing their insights and tips with you.

Due to the interrelationship of the two disciplines, you can choose to study creative writing combined with English literature.

• Roehampton is ranked third in London for creative writing (Complete University Guide 2019).
• We offer a constantly evolving range of cutting-edge modules. Students have recently explored writing for computer games, graphic novels and television.
• We’re one of the few universities covering so many writing topics, including non-fiction and copywriting.
• This is the ideal platform for students looking to publish online and in our own Fincham Press.
