Seminars
There are currently seven regular research seminars running in the
Department, each focused on a different sub-field within Theology and
Religion. Each seminar typically meets on a weekly basis, and sessions
are attended by taught and research postgraduate students along with
staff whose work is within this area. The format for these seminars
varies, but most are centred on an extended presentation on recent
research, given by an invited speaker, followed by questions and
discussion. Research seminars are treated as an important part of
postgraduate training and a key context for fostering academic
scholarship, offering opportunities to learn about new developments in
the field, engage in dialogue with guest speakers, and expand knowledge
and skills through group discussion.
