UBC’s Creative Writing program was the first writing program in Canada, and is the largest and most comprehensive in the country. It is highly ranked internationally, and draws students from around the world for its multi-genre approach to writing instruction. Students are required to work in multiple genres during the course of the degree. As a fine arts program rather than an English program, students focus on the practice of writing rather than the study of literature. Small, intensive workshops characterize the program, as does our breadth of offerings: with 11 genres of writing available for study there are more opportunities for learning than at any other writing program in the world.
