This Creative Writing: Writing the City Masters course is the first to focus entirely on the city of London. It will allow students to explore the city as subject matter from a range of perspectives and across all genres. It will also give a theoretical and practical platform from which to develop an understanding, and become part of the London writing scene.

Taught by professional writers and researchers, the course offers plenty of opportunities to network with other writers, agents, TV producers and performance poets. As part of the MA, students will be part of the team managing the Wells Street Journal, the student-led in-house magazine. Students will be based in the University’s headquarters building at 309 Regent Street, which means they will be writing about the city in the heart of London, with ready access to the capital’s excellent academic, social and cultural opportunities, including the vibrant West End theatre scene.
