Alumnus, Professor Norman Doe KC, elected as a Fellow of the British Academy

Congratulations to Norman Doe KC (Master of Theology, 2003), a Mansfield alumnus and Professor of Law at the University of Cardiff, on being elected as a Fellow of the British Academy (FBA). Professor Doe is one of the 86 leading scholars from the humanities and social sciences to be welcomed to the British Academy this year.

Professor Doe’s FBA comes after he was awarded an honorary King’s Counsel by His Majesty the King earlier this year. Honorary KCs are awarded to those who have made a major contribution to the law of England and Wales, outside practice in the courts.

About Professor Norman Doe

Professor Doe is the Director of the Centre for Law and Religion, which he set up at Cardiff Law School in 1998. He is on the editorial committee of the Ecclesiastical Law Journal and was appointed in 2013 as the Editor of the newly established Routledge Research Series in Law and Religion, the first series of its type in the UK. He has also served on the Legal Advisory Commission of the Church of England and is the Chancellor of the Diocese of Bangor and a Master of the Bench at the Inner Temple, London.

Professor Doe was nominated for reviving the study of Ecclesiastical Law in England and Wales. His publications on the subject have been highly influential, being cited in decisions relating to the constitutional role of the Church of England and contributing to the revision of clergy discipline procedures.
