. 11th September 2010 One Day Workshop / Conference

MIC Centre
"Engaging with our peers as Christian thinkers" 
The 2010 C-A-N- workshop / conference continues the theme of encouraging Christian academics to bring avowedly Christian thinking as a real contribution to their fields.

MIC Centre, Euston, London
The one day event will build on the success of the 2009 C-A-N- workshop in York, where participants illuminated the assumptions that inform their fields of scholarship using the light of Biblical perspectives.
Who is this workshop for?
All those interested in developing a Christian mind and imagination, within and for the benefit of our academic disciplines.
Who should come
The day is designed for a wide range of participants (not just those who came last year's conference). Post-graduates and those starting their career are particularly welcome as well as seasoned academics. We all have our own questions and contributions to make on relating the gospel to our disciplines.

Why come?
Come to listen, to share, to engage and keep our faith relevant in a dynamic environment.

Perspectives
Reading1.jpg

C-A-N- is developing a collection of short pieces that give an individual's Christian perspective on current activity in an academic discipline or graduate profession or across professions / disciplines. We are looking for additional contributors (or reviewers) of such personal perspectives. We are also looking for additional ideas for topics on which such an overview would be useful - particularly multi-disciplinary or inter-professional issues.

1) If you know of any such perspectives which already exist then please send details to the perspectives editor so that we can reference them.

2) If there is no perspective for your discipline or profession then:
- please volunteer a personal Perspective on some issue to which you have brought biblical thinking and academic study or
- suggest someone who might be willing to write of short piece of this sort.

For more information, to make a comment or a suggestion, please send an email to our perspectives editor This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it
