CREATIVE WRITING (MULTIDISCIPLINE) at University of Salford

Creative writing at Salford is multi-discipline and contemporary. This course will help you develop your writing while learning practical production skills.

You will study prose, poetry, script and screen writing in the first year, while learning basic skills in how to make film, record audio and write online content. You will have the option to explore writing for the games industry, comics, children’s literature, experimental visual texts, journalism and even more in years two and three.

As a student of both storytelling and production, you will study at MediaCityUK, and on our green campus Peel Park in the heart of Manchester.

You will be taught by practicing professionals in every field and become a part of a vibrant creative community in written, multi-media and performance arts. Your creative work is the assessed content of the degree and will form a professional portfolio on graduation.

This course is just one of our English and Creative Writing programmes, which have risen ten places in the 2020 Guardian university league tables. 

You will:

• Learn storytelling, writing and production skills at our state-of-the art campuses in MediaCityUK and Peel Park
• Choose a degree pathway through diverse forms: playwriting, screenwriting, journalism, writing for games, poetry and prose fiction, or choose to experiment in every form
• Study in a collaborative creative environment alongside artists in film, music and drama
