OXFORD THEOLOGICAL EXCHANGE PROGRAMME (OTEP)
(CHEVENING SCHOLARSHIPS)

FOR THE ACADEMIC YEAR 2007-2008

The University of Oxford in collaboration with the Foreign and Commonwealth Office (FCO) and the member Churches of the Churches Together in Britain and Ireland (CTBI), in particular the Methodist Church and the Church Mission Society, jointly offers three, possibly four, Scholarships, to enable theological students of outstanding academic merit from the countries of eastern or central Europe, Russia and the countries of the former Soviet Union to pursue further studies in the University’s Faculty of Theology.

The Scholarships are open to candidates (normally between the ages of 25 and 40) who, in most cases, will already have, or expect to obtain before October 2007, a theological degree from a recognised university or theological college.

The Scholarships will be tenable for up to one year of study and will cover fees, a maintenance allowance, and where necessary, a return air fare. All applicants must be approved and sponsored by a recognised Church authority in the applicants’ home countries. The Scholarships are open to members of any Christian denomination. Successful applicants should be willing, if asked, to attend an interview by diplomatic and Church personnel in their home country.

As one objective of the programme is to develop contacts between Churches in the United Kingdom and Eastern Europe and the former Soviet Union in order to provide a basis for future collaboration, applicants should have some motivation towards ecumenism in coming to Oxford.

All applicants should complete a preliminary application form available from:

Mrs Elizabeth Macallister
University of Oxford, Theology
41 St Giles, Oxford, OX1 3LW
tel:01865270797
fax: 01865-270795
email: elizabeth.macallister@admin.ox.ac.uk  

The completed application forms must be returned to the same address not later than 28 February 2007.
