The Association of Theological Schools

Grants Programs

Through its faculty grant programs, ATS seeks to (1) develop theological research that serves the needs of theological schools, communities of faith, and the wider society and (2) enhance faculty skill and capacity as theological researchers and scholars. Two programs are offered: the Henry Luce III Fellows in Theology program and the Lilly Theological Research Grants program. Applicants to these programs must be full-time faculty members at ATS accredited and candidate member schools.
