Our Theology and Religious Studies 'Find Out More' event gives you the chance to meet both staff and students in an informal and friendly atmosphere. You’ll discover more about our academic department, explore our Master's and Doctoral courses, discuss our PhD options, and learn about the unique nature of postgraduate studies with us.

This event also provides an opportunity to consider the broader relevance of advanced study in theology and religious studies; our courses equip you with critical insight and analytical skills that are highly valuable in today’s world, and we are open to discussion! In an era marked by diverse perspectives and complex global issues, an in-depth understanding of religious beliefs, practices, and ethical frameworks is essential for those aiming to engage and facilitate cultural and religious literacy. These areas are core to our courses' current and comprehensive curriculum.

There will be plenty of opportunity to ask all the questions that you have and, because this event is hosted as a hybrid event, you can join us either online or in-person - whatever works best for you.

If you would like to make and enquiries ahead of the event, please feel free to contact the course programme leaders Prof Caroline Tee (Theology and Religious Studies MA) or Dr Dawn Llewellyn (Theology and Religious Studies DProf).
