Sigurd Vilhelm Odland (December 5, 1857 – April 30, 1937) was a Norwegian theologian and church leader.

Odland's background was in the Haugean movement[2] and he supported a strong and consistent approach to theology.

When the liberal theologian Johannes Ording was named a professor of theology in 1906, Odland, like the minister of church affairs Christopher Knudsen, quit in protest.

A number of people in the circle around Odland then joined forces to form an independent institution for educating priests, the MF Norwegian School of Theology, which was founded in 1907.

[3] In 1892, Odland succeeded Gisle Johnson as head of the Norwegian Lutheran Inner Mission Society, but he left the society in 1911 because the general assembly had decided that women should have voting rights in the organization.
