About

Visit programme website for more information

Overview

The Creative Writing course from SRH University enables you to develop your own artistic voice while expanding your understanding of writing as a form of research, creative practice and social engagement. The two-year programme is a collaboration between four renowned European institutions: SRH University of Applied Sciences (Berlin), ArtEZ University of the Arts (Arnhem), Escuela de Escritores (Madrid) and Scuola Holden (Turin).

Career

As a graduate of the European Master Creative Writing, you will gain a strong understanding of literary processes and develop a distinctive international profile. You may explore new narrative forms, produce your own publications or curate literary programmes.

Your expertise in narrative research, intercultural collaboration and creative practice prepares you for a wide range of career paths — from working as an independent writer to roles in publishing, as well as projects at the intersection of art, media and society.

Programme Structure

  • The programme focuses on artistic research, European literary theory and experimental writing practice. You will work on your own creative project, receive extensive feedback and further develop your narrative approach — from traditional prose to digital formats. 
  • Around 30% of the programme consists of seminars and workshops, while 70% is dedicated to individual artistic work.
