Department of Creative Writing
The Department of Creative Writing at the University of Evansville is unique. We were one of the first departments in the nation to offer the B.F.A. in Creative Writing and are still one of only a handful in the world to do so.
Because of this rare opportunity, you will experience the kind of challenging curriculum and close mentoring with faculty usually reserved for graduate-level writing programs. Add to this innovative and long-standing program our B.A. degree in Writing; our publications like Measure and The Evansville Review, which can provide valuable editing experience; our visiting writers series, the Creative Writing Coffee Hour; our focus on learning from great writers of the past and present; our published faculty; the Harlaxton Summer Writing Program; various internships and professional opportunities; and Student Writers of Indiana, we think you will find the kind of personal and intensive academic experience that only a small, liberal-arts university can provide as we prepare you for careers as writers, editors, publishers, and teachers.
