In some modules you may undertake independent or guided field trips for creative practice research. This may include exploring DMU campus, the local area, your home area or further afield. Other facilities at DMU may also be visited, such as the DMU library, The Gallery, Trinity Chapel and DMU Special Collections. On occasions, you may be encouraged to visit local museums and galleries, green spaces and historic sites of interest, such as Leicester Museum and Art Gallery, Newarke Houses, the city’s statues and monuments, Bradgate Park.
While studying Creative Writing and English Literature at DMU, students have benefitted from learning beyond classroom boundaries on field trips to dynamic locations that inspire creativity, such as a ghost story workshop in a historic deconsucted chapel.
