BA in Creative Writing
It starts with imagination, a love of language, of books, of storytelling. But Creative Writing is also much more than that. It’s a launchpad for mastering the craft of effective, persuasive expression and communication. These are the skills that produce writers and poets; but they’re also what lead to successful careers in publishing, editing, marketing and publicity.
