Creative Writing (MA)
Only you can write the book that you would like to write, be it a collection of poetry, a novel, a memoir… nobody else can write that book. The purpose of this Creative Writing MA at UCC is to give you the tools to write the book waiting to be written, and many more after it.
As well as honing the techniques and craft of creative writing, our MA is also designed to prepare you for a variety of career options including publishing, and the creative arts – where we will introduce you to the publishing industry (engaging on a weekly basis with published authors and publishing professionals).
