Program Summary

Murdoch University Preparation Course (MUPC) - (Accelerated Entry), is an accelerated 1 Trimester course made up of a minimum of four Foundation Studies units for students with slightly higher academic and English proficiency levels.

  • want to change their degree stream
On successful completion of the MUPC, students will gain entry to the first year of any undergraduate degree at Murdoch University, with the exception of Veterinary Science, Bachelor of Nursing and Bachelor of Education.

Bachelor of Arts - English and Creative Writing (B1356) (001572M)

The Bachelor of Arts embraces new directions in teaching and practice-based learning to train the thinkers and researchers of the 21st century. Many of the biggest and most vital issues humans face today are about human society and the human condition. In this degree students will learn to put theory into practice in a way that is recognised and valued by employers.

The English and Creative Writing major rests on the idea of the importance of literature as a living cultural practice. Students will focus on the global significance of text as a literary form, broadly understood to include all its variants - from the short story, to the sonnet, from the blog to the bildungsroman, and from pastoral to performance poetry.

Understanding the intimate relationship between the literary and the creative, students will get to study English literature while developing knowledge and skill in critical and creative reflection and writing practice.
