Course content

The programme has a specific focus on academic and trade publishing, and offers in-house professional support alongside the industry knowledge of our esteemed delivery partners at Liverpool University Press (LUP).

Your future employability is a key consideration of the programme. You'll have the opportunity to undertake relevant work experience, and will develop industry-standard digital skills (in the use of Adobe Creative Suite, for example). Career coaching will be provided by the LUP team, and you’ll be prepared for entering the job market through support to develop your CV and participation in a mock interview. You'll gain insight into editorial, production and marketing, and see the global publishing industry in practice through a subsidised visit to the London Book Fair.

LUP is the third oldest university press in the UK, and this new MA is the first in the Russell Group to be co-developed with an on-site academic publisher. It builds on the existing strong relationship between the Department of English and LUP, best exemplified by the successful and award-winning Pavilion Poetry imprint.
