Pursue postgraduate research alongside ordination training

As an ordinand at Trinity, you can benefit from our large postgraduate research community.

Our ordinands have the option to pursue a research programme (MTh or PhD) as part of their ordination training; you would simply complete both our usual application form and our research application form.

Questions? Contact admissions@trinitycollegebristol.ac.uk for questions about ordination training or pavla.slugenova@trinitycollegebristol.ac.uk for questions about postgraduate research.
