Postgraduates

Serving Master's students, PhD students and post-doctoral researchers.

Association

Our Association of Christian Postgraduate Groups provides an umbrella for self-led local postgraduate groups who would like to benefit from the encouragement and profile of connectivity with similar groups across Europe sharing the same vision and values. We also offer resourcing, mentoring and summer conferences for group leaders: in 2026 the conference will take place in Germany. For more information, see the Association page.

Conferences

Forming a Christian Mind conferences in Cambridge are (bi-)annual events focussed around a topical theme. In 2025-2026 the theme is ‘This Gospel I Believe: Confidence and Crisis in the Christian Academic Mind’. The conferences gather approximately 100 postgraduates on average, and consist of a mix of plenaries, discipline-specific seminars, and time to connect more informally over meals. 

For more information, see the Forming a Christian Mind website.

Fellows Programme

The Fellows Programme is a 22-week term-time intensive development course for an annual cohort of up to 10 postgraduate students with seminars, discussion of guided reading, and supported practical exercises. These include the writing of an essay demonstrating the outworking of a Christian worldview in their field, and the delivery of a TED-style evangelistic talk rooted from within their research.
