* MLitt: 12 months full-time

Our programme is the only one in Scotland that combines playwriting with dramaturgy. You will undertake core practical playwriting courses and core dramaturgy courses, before then choosing to specialise in one pathway. A significant part of the programme is delivered by professional writers and dramaturges, ensuring the programme content is relevant and up to date with the latest trends in theatre.

Core teaching is delivered in two semesters, followed by an independent desk- or practice-based project.

Our core courses introduce you to the foundations of both playwriting as a craft, and dramaturgy as a historical and contemporary practice.

In addition, core courses develop other skills useful to the role of the dramaturg and the practitioner, including critical reading, writing and reflection, independent research skills (such as archival and audience research), and presentation skills.

These courses will also prepare you to pursue doctoral study in the future.

Courses include

* Playwriting
* Dramaturgy: histories and practices
* Reading and interpreting performance
* Dramaturgical work placement
* Research methods
* Independent project.
