About Our Kitchen

What is a global university pedagogy in and for the 21st century? How can it be more attentive to questions of power, authority, and agency?

How might it address questions of multilingualism and linguistic diversity of faculty and students? What are some distinctive approaches to teaching expository and creative writing? What role can translation play as a means of reaching across language, culture and media? How might curricula better represent historically marginalized communities, languages and cultures?

This kitchen seeks to answer these important questions by prop osing three complementary projects, each centered on critical topics in writing, languages, and pedagogy.

A Creative Writing Minor Complements Any Major

Staff Writer

At NYU, anyone can become a writer. Across the University’s Abu Dhabi, New York City, and Shanghai campuses, students find the rigor and inspiration necessary to hone their craft. And they’re not all aspiring journalists, poets, or novelists. Students studying a range of disciplines find that a creative writing minor can enrich any field of study.

“Creative writing can teach anyone to express themselves confidently, creatively, and effectively,” affirms NYU Abu Dhabi assistant professor of practice, literature, and creative writing Miguel Syjuco. “If you become a biologist, you can write op-eds to tell the world why your research is important. If you’re a politician, you can give the best speeches. That makes creative writing possibly the single most important, unexpected thing a student can take.”

Psychology and Poetry in Shanghai

When Yixuan Cui, a Social Science major, started at NYU Shanghai , creative writing was a foreign concept. “I just knew I loved reading and writing down random thoughts in my journal,” she says. “It was hard at the beginning. Since I was writing in my second language, I struggled to find the right words. But my professor encouraged me to keep going, and eventually, I realized my passion.” While Yixuan has completed all her minor requirements, she intends to continue writing through an independent study.

Because NYU Shanghai’s Creative Writing minor program is still growing, “Students have a real opportunity to lead and shape what kinds of programming we offer,” explains Professor Jennifer Tomscha, director of NYU Shanghai’s Writing Program. The program is “both of the city and of the world,” she adds. “Nearly all of our students are fluent in or learning Chinese and English. So, the writers we read reflect the diversity of our students.” Living and learning in such a vibrant city, students have access to a variety of programming, from readings by Pulitzer Prize–winning writers to student-run poetry slams.

Additionally, due to the program’s small size, writers of all stripes have ample opportunity to share their work. For example, the Reading Series brings together students and faculty to read their poetry, short stories, or drafts in an intimate setting. Students also take advantage of location-specific programming. In March 2019, students attended a writers’ retreat at Jiuhuashan, one of Chinaʼs four holy Buddhist mountains. There, they read, wrote poetry, hiked to temples, and reflected on their place in the world. Yixuan says, “Storytelling is a critical tool to communicate, connect, and influence people. My Creative Writing minor has made me a storyteller. And more than that, it’s given me space to recharge. It’s given me joy.”

Numbers and Words in New York City

At NYU’s campus in New York City, Creative Writing minors take advantage of everything the distinguished program and dynamic city have to offer. Faculty members include renowned authors and poets, allowing students to learn from an exceptional and diverse array of talent.

“NYU’s writing program is unique because the professors are so talented and successful,” says Aurora Huiza, a College of Arts and Science English major and Creative Writing minor. “Plus, many of the faculty members who teach graduate-level courses also teach undergraduates. You can learn so much from them.” The program also includes regular Reading Series events, which bring acclaimed writers and editors to campus for conversations and book signings. In addition, students have numerous opportunities for workshopping and publication, including the student-edited undergraduate literary journal West 10th , where Aurora is a prose editor. “At West 10th , we appreciate and encourage undergraduate written work. Getting your work seen is a really special opportunity,” she explains.

For Johanna Dong, a senior at the NYU Stern School of Business, creative writing provides both escape and structure. Her Creative Writing minor keeps her motivated, ensuring that she writes regularly. “As a Business major with co-concentrations in marketing and econometrics and quantitative economics, the content of my classes doesn’t overlap much,” she laughs. “But it’s really nice to have a mix of quantitative and creative classes. And surprisingly, people consider creative writing an interesting and differentiating aspect of my background. At first, I thought I should choose a minor more directly related to economics. But now, I really believe that you should go for whatever is interesting to you. If youʼre passionate about something, others will pick up on that—no matter what.”

Computers and Self-Expression in Abu Dhabi

The first time Máté Hekfusz held a pen, he knew he’d found a lifelong passion in creative writing. But over the years, it remained a hobby as he took classes in math and pursued a career in tech. When he came to NYU Abu Dhabi , he planned to major in Computer Science. Then he saw the range of multidisciplinary minors, including his beloved creative writing. After an introductory course, he was hooked. “We have amazing professors, fascinating courses, and great workshopping. I love getting feedback from both my professors and peers,” he says. And NYU Abu Dhabi’s Literature and Creative Writing program is unique in that it combines the two fields. Moreover, the program’s small size lends itself to a particularly involved student and professor population. Majors and nonmajors alike contribute to the Gazelle , the school newspaper, and Airport Road , its literary publication.

While most are surprised to learn that a Computer Science major is also studying creative writing, Máté has found that his minor has made him a better computer scientist. “Creative writing makes you better at expressing yourself. And that’s a crucial skill in tech,” he says. “From code commenting to presenting your work to writing business emails—all of these require self-expression. Creative writing teaches you how to weave words and craft stories. You can use those skills to write a fantasy epic, but you can also pitch your dream project in the office. You’re sure to win over any audience.”

At the same time, he advises would-be Creative Writing minors not to get hung up on what they’ll do with their minor. “Colleges like NYU Abu Dhabi (and NYU at large) offer the incredible opportunity to put together your own education. We are all complex people with many interests. Donʼt be afraid to dive into any of them.”

Literature and Creative Writing (BA)

Program description.

Literature has been central to the formation of collective identities across cultures, nations, and historical epochs. Though literary works are anchored in a particular time and place, many of them are read widely in other times and other places, and by cultures to which they would seem not to belong. The Literature and Creative Writing major at NYU Abu Dhabi is uniquely organized around problems presented by translation, adaptation, and circulation. Unlike many college literary curricula that restrict majors to the study of works in a single language or from a specific national tradition, this major engages students in critical conversations that cut across fields, and in doing so help to rethink the very foundations of literary studies and creative writing.

How are literary forms and the histories of literature and literary exchanges shaped by translation, by military victory and defeat, by colonization and postcolonialism, and by the rise of an economic world system? How do new forms and traditions of literature arise and is there such a thing as an emergent world or global literature? How might the imaginative encounter with other cultures renew our engagements with ourselves and our world? How do cultural, political, class, racial, or sexual differences inform and sustain a vision of a common world? How are literary studies and creative writing in dialogue with the other arts as well as with cultural analysis and theory? What is the role of literary writing in contemporary local and global contexts? What is the relationship between the written, the oral, and the performance? How do we define aesthetic significance across different cultural traditions and different literary modes? Students discuss these and other questions intensively with a distinguished faculty of scholars and writers who come from and work across a wide variety of literary cultures.

The Literature and Creative Writing Program teaches students to become effective analysts of culture, history, and politics, and to become confident writers across a wide range of genres. Creative writing seminars—open to the entire NYUAD student body—include instruction in poetry, fiction, non-fiction, literary journalism, and writing for stage and screen.

Though most course materials are written in or translated into English, they are drawn from an array of cultural traditions. Students with fluency in other languages are encouraged to read assigned texts in the original. All majors take at least one course in creative writing. In advanced coursework, students may pursue a specialization in either literary studies or creative writing, culminating in a capstone thesis or creative project and contextualizing essay.

A major in Literature and Creative Writing prepares students for careers that require critical thinking, forceful and lucid writing, and the ability to undertake challenging research. The Literature and Creative Writing major might lead to graduate school in literature or creative writing, but could just as readily lead to graduate work in law or public policy, and to careers in journalism, publishing, international relations, advertising and media, arts administration, museum and gallery work, or work in the non-profit sector.

The major in Literature and Creative Writing offers two twelve-course tracks, one emphasizing scholarship, the other emphasizing creative work. The program is devoted to the idea that an undergraduate literature major becomes more fruitful when literary scholarship and creative literary work enrich and inform one another.

Students in both tracks take five required courses, which explore the interplay between reading, scholarship, and creative practice: Literary Interpretation; Foundations of Literature I: Epic and Drama; Foundations of Literature II: Lyric Poetry and the Novel; Introduction to Creative Writing; and Problems and Methods in Literary Studies.

Students in the scholarship track take five scholarly electives (at least one of which must be from a list of courses dealing with “pre-modern” subjects). One of these five electives may include an additional creative writing course. Students in the creative track take three creative writing electives and two scholarly electives, which prepare them to produce a creative capstone that is informed by a scholarly perspective. Students in the scholarly track may take one additional creative writing course in lieu of a scholarly elective. All students must take one 3000-level course, one course in pre-modern literatures, and may count only one course with a core curriculum course number (e.g. CADT-UH 1021 Art of Narrative Science ) for elective credit. All seniors enroll in two semesters of Capstone Seminar and Project in addition to intensive study with a faculty mentor on the project.

The Literature and Creative Writing program recommends that students complete four of their five required courses before studying abroad. Students use their first study abroad to explore the breadth of NYU’s global liberal arts curriculum, and to seek courses that complement their literary studies. Students who choose to apply for a second semester abroad should do so in consultation with an advisor who will help them take into account their possible capstone topic or other academic endeavors. All students planning to be away in spring of junior year should meet with the Literature and Creative Writing Program Head in fall semester to discuss a capstone plan. Students are encouraged to pursue language studies as a complement to the major and we recommend that, where possible, students take at least one course that focuses on the literatures of the study-away site.

New York University's Office of Undergraduate Admissions supports the application process for all undergraduate programs at NYU.  For additional information about undergraduate admissions, including application requirements, see How to Apply .

Creative Writing (Minor)

Program description , minor declaration.

The New York University Program in Creative Writing, among the most distinguished programs in the country, is a leading national center for the study of writing and literature. The undergraduate and graduate programs provide students with an opportunity to develop their craft while working closely with some of the finest poets and novelists writing today. The creative writing program occupies a lovely townhouse on West 10th Street in the same Greenwich Village neighborhood where so many writers have lived and worked. The Lillian Vernon Creative Writers House allows writers—both established and emerging—to share their work in an inspiring setting.

The program's distinguished faculty of award-winning poets and prose writers represents a wide array of contemporary aesthetics. Our instructors have been the recipients of Pulitzer Prizes, MacArthur Genius, Guggenheim, and NEA fellowships, National Book and National Book Critics Circle awards, Pushcart Prizes, the Whiting Writer's Award, and more.

Undergraduates are encouraged to attend the program's reading series, which brings both established and new writers to NYU. Writing prizes, special events, and our undergraduate literary journal,  West 10th , further complement our course offerings and provide a sense of community for undergraduate writers. If you have questions about the minor in creative writing, please contact us at  [email protected] .

To request declaration of a minor, CAS students should visit the host department. To request declaration of a cross-school minor, CAS students should complete the online Minor Application available in their Albert Student Center. Students may also use the  Minor Application  in Albert to request cancellation of a CAS or cross-school minor.

Program Requirements

The minor requires the completion of 16 credits, comprised of the following:

General Information

The introductory workshop CRWRI-UA 815 Creative Writing: Intro Prose & Poetry , or the study away course CRWRI-UA 9815 Creative Writing , is generally the required foundational course, to be followed by 12 additional credits from the program's CRWRI-UA course offerings.

However, students who begin their minor by taking one of the program's 8-credit summer intensives—Writers in New York (CRWRI-UA 818, 819, or 835), Writers in Paris (CRWRI-UA 9818 or 9819), or Writers in Florence (CRWRI-UA 9828 or 9829)—are not required to take the introductory workshop (CRWRI-UA 815, CRWRI-UA 9815, or equivalent). Following completion of one of these 8-credit intensives, students may take advanced coursework in the same genre as their summer intensive and/or move directly into an intermediate workshop in an alternative genre. Students may also repeat an 8-credit summer intensive to complete the 16-credit minor. Intermediate and advanced workshops may be taken three times for credit.

Students wishing to begin the creative writing minor while studying away at an NYU site should register for CRWRI-UA 9815 Creative Writing or, if studying away in the summer, for one of the 8-credit intensives offered in Paris and Florence (CRWRI-UA 9818, 9819, 9828, or 9829). These courses are not considered outside courses and will automatically be counted toward the creative writing minor. All other creative writing courses taken away require a petition for substitution and are subject to approval by the program.

Policies Applying to the Minor

Policy on course substitutions, nyu policies, college of arts and science policies.

The creative writing minor must be completed with a minimum grade point average of 2.0 (C). No credit toward the minor is granted for grades of C- or lower, although such grades will be computed into the grade point average of the minor, as well as into the overall grade point average. No course to be counted toward the minor may be taken on a Pass/Fail basis.

Students may petition to apply a maximum of one outside course toward the minor, either as the introductory prerequisite (equivalent to CRWRI-UA 815 or 9815) or as an elective. An outside course is any NYU creative writing course without a CRWRI-UA rubric. To petition to substitute an outside course, students must complete the course substitution petition form (available on the program's website) and provide the course syllabus (as described on the petition form). The undergraduate programs manager will review the submitted syllabus to verify course level and determine substitution eligibility. Students must petition for course substitution prior to registration.

If the program pre-approves a non-NYU course for substitution, it can only be counted toward the minor if 1. the Office of the Associate Dean for Students in CAS has also approved the course credit for transfer, and 2. the student receives a grade of C or better.

University-wide policies can be found on the New York University Policy pages .
