专业介绍

Program Description

For students who've finished high school but don’t meet the entry requirements for university, a Foundation Certificate can help them gain entry to an undergraduate degree. After completing this pathway option students qualify for progression to the 1st year of an undergraduate degree at the University of Essex.

A student’s course length is determined mainly by their English language level (UKVI IELTS score). Students on all course lengths take a set of common or similar modules to gain a solid base of skills for university. Students taking a course longer than 2 terms, will take additional modules designed to improve one or more of their English language level, academic skills, and basic knowledge of particular subjects.

Master of Letters - Literature and Creative Writing

On this course students will reflect on how literature shapes, and is shaped by the world, as well as honing the craft of writing through a multi-genre approach.

Drawing on key texts and ideas, students will develop critical thinking and creative problem-solving skills that will help them to make their own mark. To develop their own creative writing, the Department offers an unusual approach to the practice of writing, combining innovative and traditional methods in order to develop students’ writing skills and abilities to judge their work critically, while expanding their knowledge across different modes and genres.

On the four-year MLitSt Literature and Creative Writing, students will be part of an interdisciplinary department and well-established home to practicing poets, dramatists, novelists and critics.

They have the flexibility to choose from a wide range of optional modules across different topics and areas of specialisation, including;

• Writing an independent creative project
• Early Modern (16th and 17th century) literature
• Exploring the psychological foundations of creativity in relation to myth
• United States, Caribbean and Transatlantic literature
• Writing for radio and playwriting
• Poetic, contemporary and avant-garde and political writing
