Information about the 2014 Conference – venue, fees, speakers as well as further information about history, past conferences (including uploaded talks) can be found at ://www.christianpostgrad.org.uk/
The Conference challenges participants to think end the dichotomy that often exists between academic life and faith/ church life. It encourages them to think of how their faith relates to their academic thinking (subject/ discipline/ research), to pursue intellectual rigor in both faith and academic engagement, and to consider God’s calling for them – as those privileged to have higher education. It is a holistic weekend – including time to relax, for discussion, worship, space to make friends, and have conversation with speakers and other participants.
A few things to note:
