Creative Writing Program
Creative writing is one of the fastest growing degree programs. According to the Association of Writers and Writing Programs, in 1975 the number of schools with creative writing degrees was 79; in 2009 that number was 822. This has resulted in a greater need for creative writing instructors at all educational levels. Students who enroll in undergraduate creative writing programs should be better prepared for graduate studies and for teaching positions. The degree could also apply to a number of other professions.
