Religious Observance
Newcastle upon Tyne is a large and diverse international city. All of the major world faiths worship in the city, and contribute towards its spirituality and culture. The University greatly values the contribution that people of all faiths make towards its social and academic life.
The Newcastle University Chaplaincy provides a focus for all religious faiths and offers support for all students. The Chaplaincy organises:
- days and weekends away
- worship services
- public lectures
There are chaplains of different Christian denominations and other world faiths, and a Jewish and a Buddhist Chaplain have been appointed to the University. Our Chaplains are available for all students who want to talk, pray or have some space.
There is a mosque located on the University campus and the Chaplaincy can provide information on other places of worship in the city.
The University also has a number of student-led religious societies within the Students' Union.
