We are delighted to announce that two of our Science and Religion students have won the 2016 Student Prize from ESSSAT (the European Society for the Study of Science and Theology). Prize winners Melanie McConnell (MSc in Science and Religion), and Sarah Lane Ritchie (PhD) were presented with their awards at the ESSSAT conference in Lodz, Poland by Prof Dirk Evers (President of ESSSAT). Melanie and Sarah join a growing list of award winners from the Edinburgh Science and Religion programme. Previous winners are Jaeho Jang (Peacocke Prize 2015) and Jenna Freudenberg (ESSSAT 2014). 

We'd like to whole heartedly congratulate our students on their success.
