University English is a non-profit professional body and community founded in 1993 to promote and protect the study of English in UK Higher Education.
It brings together university lecturers, heads of English, researchers, and independent scholars to promote dialogue, discuss matters of shared concern, and strategise for the successful future of English.
Our website is the hub of our community with information on our Book Prize, annual meetings and events, publications and media, and related networks. Members have access to all our online content and are invited to attend our conferences and general meetings to share knowledge and experiences. Join us today
The English Creates Campaign mission is to champion, defend and expand access to the study of literature, language, and creative writing in English (in all their forms, regionalities and nationalities), particularly for year 12 and 13 students wanting to study English at university.
Continue to check the campaign pages and keep in touch with our social media channels (you can find UE on LinkedIn, Twitter (X), Instagram and Tik Tok) for resources, news and events. Please also consider getting involved either individually or via your University English departments. We are eager to hear from students, graduates and employers with experience and passion for English literature, creative writing and all related subjects. You can get in touch with us at englishcreates@universityenglish.ac.uk
Members meet twice a year, at the Annual General Meeting in Spring and the Ordinary General Meeting in early December. These events are an opportunity to meet colleagues from other institutions, find out about recent developments, celebrate the subject, and discuss matters of shared concern.
