Humanities

UCL’s BA Creative Arts and Humanities is a bold and exciting undergraduate degree, uniquely bringing together creative writing, moving image and performance, and is the first of its kind in the UK. UCL's BA Creative Arts and Humanities is an interdisciplinary degree that will enable you to develop both your creative and critical skills, focusing on the role of narrative across three forms of creative practice:

Writing: narratives for paper, screen and the digital sphere in fiction and non-fiction genres.
Moving image: making narratives for screen, both fictional and documentary, from static images, storyboards, texts and scripts, to filming, final edit and display.
Performance: working with voice, body and movement to communicate ideas and emotions through performance for stage, film and digital media.

Based at our new campus in Stratford, UCL East, you will be part of a community of students studying interdisciplinary degrees in both arts and sciences subjects that are focused on creating, designing and making, with a strong emphasis on active engagement with the world to effect change.
