Purpose:
New Announcement! Grants for Templeton Oxford Seminar Participants
The seminar particularly encourages young faculty members to engage in scholarly research in the new field of science and religion, creating opportunity for them to have dialogue with each other and with scholars in Britain to give breadth to their scholarship and to give a context for refining their ideas among other scholars. The daily seminars are accompanied by workshops, discussion groups, and research counseling. Mentors are assigned to the participants based on the goals of their projects, serving as readers of the research and providing feedback to the participants. Participants are mentored in their writing by recognized scholars in science and religion.
