Dear Prospective Fellow,
Many thanks for your interest in becoming a Fellow of Westar Institute.
Westar Institute welcomes the participation of scholars with advanced academic degrees (Ph.D. or equivalent) in religious studies or related disciplines from accredited universities worldwide.
Let me say a few words about what it means to be a Westar Fellow. From the inception of the Jesus Seminar in 1985, it has been our expectation that Fellows will attend Westar meetings and participate
in the discussion and present contributions, as appropriate, to Westar's scholarly projects. The distinctive culture of Westar's seminars depends upon Fellows taking active part in the conversation. To learn more about the Westar culture, we urge you to read the statement of Ethos & Protocols on this website.
Fellows who wish to participate fully are invited to join as Professional members. For information on the costs and benefits, .
The application to become a Westar Fellow consists of three steps:
- Filling in the blanks on the online application form and
