The School of PRHS is a diverse and vibrant community specialising in philosophy, applied ethics, theology and religious studies, and the history and philosophy of science. Through our interdisciplinary research, teaching and consultancy, we are proud to have created a stimulating environment for taught and research students, visiting professors and the external organisations that we collaborate with.

You will be a highly motivated and experienced administrator who will play an important role providing comprehensive administrative and professional support to the School.

Dr Leidenhag has been awarded a large grant by the John Templeton Foundation, which will fund a 33-month project entitled, “God, Language and Diversity: Spiritual Flourishing in Neurodiverse and Multilingual Communities”. This project has five interdisciplinary research teams, made up of psychologists and theologians, at different UK universities (and one collaborator based in Australia). Each project investigates the relationship between language difference (e.g., aphasia, autism, dyslexia, multilingualism, etc.) and spiritual flourishing (e.g., sense of belonging within a religious community, ability to understand sacred texts or navigate ethical challenges).
