About Fellowship

Listed below are the categories of fellowship at Green Templeton College. Association is organised into three categories: Fellows, Associates and Common Room Members. Some of these are restricted to those with a substantive academic post within the University of Oxford. Individuals are elected by Governing Body on the recommendation of Fellowship Committee.

Fellows

Governing Body Fellows

These are trustees of the college, and as such are obligated to comply with the requirements of trusteeship in line with Charity Commission guidance.

Associate Fellows

Have significant expertise and experience in fields allied with the college’s academic identity, strengths and strategy. This category is primarily for those without a formal academic association with the University of Oxford and it exists at Green Templeton to further the college’s aim of providing parity of esteem to research and practice.

Barclay Fellows
