Develop and implement a programme of research guided by experienced supervisors and practitioners. We offer research opportunities in Creative Writing; English Language including social structure and stylistics; eighteenth-century and romantic literature; the Renaissance; contemporary and modern literature; performativity, theatre studies and practices. All our courses are designed around a set of key principles based on engaging you with the world, collaborating with others, challenging you to think in new ways, and providing you with a supportive environment in which you can thrive. You will work with a supervisory team with expertise in your chosen research area who will help you to define and plan your research programme, agree associated training requirements, and provide direction while supporting you to develop as an independent researcher. You will join a dynamic community of postgraduate researchers and have opportunities to share your work at SHU and beyond.
