The Unibenedictine School of Theology is part of the American Benedictine Catholic University and is dedicated to educating students in the academic aspects of religion and preparing them for leadership roles in the religious, public, and service sectors.
The School offers a comprehensive program of study at the bachelor’s, master’s, doctoral, and postdoctoral levels, covering the study of the main aspects of the faith and teachings of religions in relation to modern life.
The goal is to train students at a global level who are able to understand, present, and defend religions in an organic and systematic way, in dialogue with the contemporary world and with other faiths.
The curriculum seeks to harmonize theology and religious disciplines, encompassing both “confessional” and “secular” perspectives within a global framework.
