Applications for the Zoroastrian Summer School 2023 are now open. The week-long course is a collaboration between the SOAS Shapoorji Pallonji Institute of Zoroastrian Studies and the University of Bergen. It will take place from the 26th to 30th June at the Norwegian Institute in Rome.

The topic of the course is ‘Zoroastrianism as a religious minority in modern and contemporary Iran’. This course is a fantastic opportunity to immerse yourself in the study of Zoroastrianism. Students will be given an intensive learning experience consisting of lectures, discussions and interactive workshops. The course will be delivered by leading academics from Norway, the UK and the US.

Applications are open to both current (undergraduate or master’s) students and graduates. There are no tuition fees, and only a £40 registration fee for successful applicants. We are pleased to offer three bursaries of up to £1000 to help with the costs of travel and accommodation.

The deadline for applications is 19th March 2023.
