Course programme

What will you study on this course? 40 of your 120 credits each year will be in Creative Writing. Your study of the German language is the same in scope and number of credits as for single honours German; you take fewer German options in the second and final years, as your 40 credits in Creative Writing take their place. Residence Abroad: You go to a German speaking country for the entire third year and the same options apply as for single honours German.
