The Institute for Orthodox Christian Studies (IOCS) is a theological college in Cambridge, England. It works in collaboration with the University of Cambridge and Anglia Ruskin University and awards its degree programs through these universities. IOCS is the only Christian Orthodox institute for higher education in the UK and, beside the Department of Orthodox Theology at the University of Eastern Finland,〔http://www.uef.fi/en/filtdk/ortodoksinen-teologia〕 the only academic institution teaching the Orthodox faith in English anywhere in western Europe. Along with other theological colleges in Cambridge, it is a member of the Cambridge Theological Federation. The institute adopts a holistic approach to learning that integrates academic study with a liturgical life. == Foundation and vision == The idea of an Orthodox institute was conceived after Metropolitan Anthony of Sourozh was awarded an honorary doctorate in 1996 by the University of Cambridge. The institute was established and received the first admission of students in 1999. The declared aims of the Institute, as expressed in its Memorandum and Article of Association are “to advance religious and theological education, particularly of members of the Orthodox Church.” IOCS was founded 2 March 1999 as a registered charity and limited company in England and Wales. It became a member of the Cambridge Theological Federation in the same year. In 2012 the Orthodox Episcopal Assembly for Great Britain and Ireland recognized, approved and blessed IOCS as an educational centre and appointed one of its Bishops, Metropolitan Kallistos Ware, to be the institute's first President. Concordant with the teaching at IOCS, he is also an advocate for teaching the Orthodox faith in English. In 2013 the institute acquired its own premises at Palamas House on Chesterton High Street, Cambridge. Prior to this it was based in rented quarters at Wesley House, a Methodist theological college in Jesus Lane, Cambridge.
