RUSSELL BERRIE FOUNDATION
RUSSELL BERRIE FELLOWSHIP in INTERRELIGIOUS STUDIES

On behalf of the Russell Berrie Foundation, IIE is pleased to announce the Russell Berrie Fellowship Program, a new and timely initiative at the Pontifical University of St. Thomas Aquinas (Angelicum). Along with the establishment of an Annual Lecture Series on Interreligious Studies, the goal of the Fellowship Program is to build bridges between Catholic, Jewish, and other religious traditions by providing the next generation of religious leaders with a comprehensive understanding of and dedication to inter-faith issues.

The Fellowship targets priests and members of the laity for the purpose of studying at the Angelicum to obtain either a License or Doctoral Degree in Theology with a concentration in Interreligious Studies. In order to maintain funding, Russell Berrie Fellows must complete a curriculum, approved annually by the dean, drawn from courses that have a specific interreligious focus or that have an interreligious component.

Applicants of all faiths and backgrounds from around the world- including students currently enrolled at the Angelicum- who have a demonstrated interest in Interreligious Studies are encouraged to apply.

Up to 15 Fellowship awards are available .
The Fellowship Award will provide up to two years of financial support for Russell Berrie Fellows to pursue License or Doctoral degrees at the Angelicum. It is intended to cover tuition, a modest living stipend, examination fees, a modest book allowance, and travel to and from the recipient's home country once a year.
