EN52030: Planning Writing

Module Organiser: Aliki Varvogli

Credits: 40

Students also have access to and participate in our literary life at Dundee – from Literary Salons to the Writers Read series to taking part in the content and delivery of student led literary publications. In all, this creates a feeling of loyalty and “ownership” of the distinct nature of the programme.
