About the
Movement
We exist to help Christian postgraduates and post-docs think biblically about our double calling:
- to study excellently with a Christian ethos and worldview – bringing the light of the gospel to bear in our academic work for the benefit of society; and, conversely,
- to turn what we study to cultural apologetics and outreach – showing how the nature of reality points to the relevance and plausibility of the gospel of Christ.
We do this by hosting events for delegates across the UK and Europe, and providing additional resources, such as our annual Fellows Programme, through which we can engage both secular and Christian perspectives on the academic vocation.
Our Cambridge conferences serve as the hub for the UCCF national postgraduate ministry and for the IFES Europe postgraduate ministry across the Continent. Termly pan-London seminars catalyse local ministry in the London universities. We look forward to a Continental gathering in the near future as part of our partnership with IFES Europe.
We help postgraduates and post-docs in the UK and Europe to think biblically about their discipline and the interaction between secular and Christian perspectives.
We seek to equip Christians in the academic world to pursue a double calling:
- to study excellently with a Christian ethos and worldview – bringing the light of the gospel to bear in their academic work; and, conversely,
- to turn what they study to cultural apologetics and mission – showing how the nature of reality points to the relevance and plausibility of the gospel of Christ.
