You'll spend a BA in Literature, Creative Writing, and Publishing reading closely, writing with intention, and learning how the publishing industry actually works, from manuscript to market.
The learning environment encourages independence and curiosity, giving you space to develop your own voice alongside a rigorous understanding of literary tradition. Through coursework in narrative theory, genre fiction, poetry, and editorial practice, you'll study how texts are constructed and why they resonate. You'll also practice the craft side, drafting, revising, and workshopping original work across forms.
The publishing strand sets this field apart at undergraduate level. You'll examine how books, journals, and digital content reach readers, covering areas like copy-editing, rights management, and audience positioning. Some modules bring both strands together, asking you to edit peers' work or pitch original projects to simulated editorial panels.
Graduates go on to work as editors, literary agents, content strategists, journalists, publicists, and writers across fiction, nonfiction, and media. The analytical and communication competencies you develop transfer across nearly every sector that runs on words.
