Creative Writing

Arts

The University of Canberra’s writing program is the oldest of its kind in Australia, with a long and established record of excellence. The Bachelor of Arts (Creative Writing) is staffed by award-winning, industry-active novelists, poets, screenwriters, editors and publishers who help our students emerge from their degree with an impressive portfolio of dynamic, creative and professional work.

They’ve had the opportunity to experiment in different modes of creative writing, including prose fiction, poetry, writing for young people, screenwriting and narrative non-fiction. They’ve learnt to build narratives, craft language and hone critical skills, and will graduate with a broad and flexible set of skills and knowledge.
