About us

Who we are

The Queen’s College was founded in Birmingham in 1828 as a medical school but from 1853 also taught theology for Anglican clergy. In 1892 medical training was moved to Mason College and Queen’s remained solely as a theological college. The College moved to its present campus in Edgbaston in 1921. A merger in 1970 with a local Methodist institution, Handsworth College, formed a new ecumenical theological college on the Edgbaston campus. In 1996 Queen’s College, the West Midlands Ministerial Training Course and the Queen’s Research Centre united to form the Queen’s Foundation for Ecumenical Theological Education. With over 300 students - about 100 candidates for ordained ministry, international students, independent students - and with partnerships with Newman University College, the University of Gloucestershire and the University of Birmingham - the Foundation is a vibrant centre of learning and training. Vision Statement The Queen’s Foundation is dedicated to excellence in theological education and personal formation by: o Nurturing and equipping Christians in their discipleship o Preparing people for mission and ministry in lay and ordained roles o Resourcing research that serves the mission of God in the world We celebrate unity in diversity, in a community that is international, multi-cultural, and ecumenical. We aim to enable Christians to deepen their spiritual life, to grow in a faith that is generous, enquiring, deeply rooted and creative in thought and practice, and to be passionate for God’s work in God’s world.
