The Bishop Wenner School of Theology was established in 2017
Situated on Leicester Peak in Freetown at a former missionary compound, the School of Theology is on the mountain top in order to provide our students with a retreat-like setting for study and connection with God. It was the first faculty to be formed in order to establish the University with Christian values as the foundation. We believe that equipping Christians for leadership can transform both the church and the society in all sectors.

Her research interests include decision theory, social choice theory, epistemology, ethics, and the philosophy of religion.

It vindicates the ordinary decision-maker from the point of view of even ideal rationality.
