Course Overview

The MA (Res) Creative Writing at University of Huddersfield is a postgraduate programme designed for postgraduate students passionate about bridging cultural boundaries. Based in Huddersfield, England, this programme combines theoretical knowledge with practical application, with a 1-year full-time and part-time structure.

This type of study gives you the chance to explore a research topic over a shorter time than a more in-depth doctoral programme. International tuition fees are £17,600 per year, home/UK fees are £5,050 per year, and a minimum IELTS score of 6.0 is required for admission.
