Course summary
The creative sector is one of the fastest-growing, most dynamic industries in the world. In the digital age, writing is becoming more and more central to the way we communicate with each other. The Bachelor of Creative Arts (Creative Writing) teaches skills and strategies so your writing is strong and clear. It helps you express ideas in imaginative ways that will impact your readers. Creative writers work in a range of areas: poetry, editing, writing for multimedia, commercial and content writing, commercial theatre and performance, short stories and novels, or even in ways that combine or challenge these forms. Creative writers might write to entertain or to educate - but they're always drawing on the human condition, exploring what it means to be human.
This course is designed to teach you to think about your story, image and scene. Creative writers draft and re-draft so their work is at its best, and this process is exciting.
What you will study
Core subjects will teach you the foundation for editing, writing across borders, genre and form, contemporary theory and research practice and you will explore social justice and children's literature. As well as your Creative Writing major, you must elect a minor or a second major from the Faculty of the Arts, Social Sciences and Humanities. Creative writing pairs well with a major in English Literatures, Languages, Indigenous Studies or Philosophy.
Students will work on a major project allowing them to develop a significant piece of creative content on completion of their degree. Various artist and writer-in-residence programs take place throughout your degree and you will be encouraged to participate in extracurricular activities, facilitate public readings, perform your written work and pursue publication. There are opportunities to combine writing genres and explore the intersections between writing and other creative disciplines.
