Develop your literary voice and create stories that come alive, from page to stage and screen.

The MA Creative Writing is the first-of-its-kind in Singapore and Southeast Asia focused on graduating publishable authors, critical writers and producing new literature and written work.

In this one and only taught creative writing programme in Singapore, you will acquire a deep appreciation of the written word and the construction of the written forms such as poetry, creative non-fiction, fiction, screenplays and fiction-critical writing through formal modules and regular writing workshops and peer study.

The programme prepares the writers, editors, publishers, cultural curators and writing teachers of tomorrow who develop narratives that migrate from page to stage and screens. while aligning Singapore and Southeast Asia to the world's exponentially growing market for literary production, publishing and pedagogy.

You will gain both breadth and depth through workshops devoted to all the major genres –fiction, non-fiction, poetry and drama – followed by a creative thesis project written in the genre of your choice. This sustained study of writing, editing and publishing provides students a critical, theoretical and historical framework for the analysis of literature, art, communication and arts pedagogy.

Intensive graduate writing workshops and dialogue with visiting writers improves writing, reading and editing abilities while also providing meta-lessons in perception, creative problem-solving, social-emotional intelligence, communicative precision, interpersonal diplomacy, community, empathy, and human nature. Timeless philosophical questions about identity, knowledge, individuality, work, community, family, nationality, love, ethics and meaning arise and evolve through sustained, informed and self-aware writing in addition to consultations with our published writing faculty, workshop peers, guest writers and industry professionals.

You will have an opportunity to participate in local and regional writing festivals to build an awareness of networks, circulation and reception of the written word. The programme features workshops and dialogues with visiting writers from around the world, including Asian and Singapore writing voices.

Graduates of the programme have already made a significant mark being published by international literary publishers and winning awards particularly in Singapore.
