Abstract

This paper outlines a possible program for postgraduate research degrees in creative andprofessional writing with the aim of generating further debate on the topic. Suchpostgraduate programs, this paper suggests, may provide a framework for not only thetimely completion of research candidates' theses, but also for a broader education ofstudents, including in professional and vocational areas. Other benefits include the potentialto reduce anxiety for candidates and, by promoting a more collaborative, "community ofpractice" teaching and learning environment, the facilitation of a range of additional benefitsfor supervisors and the higher education institution as a whole.
