This £10,000 scholarship is awarded annually for up to three years to a postgraduate student whose research focuses on the intersection of theology and scientific thought. Students from all disciplines (including those outside of Theology) are eligible. Candidates from other colleges will be considered provided that they migrate to Oriel when they accept the scholarship. New postgraduate students who have applied to Oriel are also eligible.
Oriel has one of the liveliest MCR communities in Oxford, with regular social events and the now well-established ‘Oriel Talks’, which offers graduate students the opportunity to share their research with the rest of the College community.
Status: Currently closed for applications. Next award for Michaelmas 2026 entry.
