Welcome from the Head of the Faculty of Divinity
I came to Cambridge as a teacher because I could imagine no better place to pursue the study of Theology, Religion, and the Philosophy of Religion, and it is my aspiration that every student who comes here should feel the same.
Many universities provide the opportunity to pursue a degree in religion, but at Cambridge we seek to provide an environment where you can both delve deeply into particular religious traditions and explore connections between and even outside them. Studying theology and religion here allows you to engage a wide range of subjects, including philosophy, ethics, metaphysics, anthropology, history, literature, the study of the Bible and the Qur'an – and much else besides.
I hope you will visit us to learn more about all we have to offer for your university degree. Please feel free to contact me directly if you have any questions about studying here.

Regius Professor of Divinity
