School of Theology

Teologia

In the context of the pluralism of modern cultures, the School of Theology offers a program of formation marked by a strong Christocentrism, an orientation based on the conviction that a deep knowledge of the mystery of Christ is the perennial foundation for the transformation of human beings and the world.

The School’s formative agenda in both the educational and research levels is translated into the following choices of method and content:

  • A presentation of the intrinsic connection between the revealed truths as expression of the mystery of the Trinity and of its communication of love in Christ;
     
  • The mystery of the whole Christ, Head and Body, as the deep foundation of the essentially ecclesial character of any theological reflection–communion with the Church, with her doctrine, tradition, liturgy etc., is a necessary premise to any pursuit of theological knowledge of Revelation;
     
  • The intimate connection between the divinity and humanity of Christ as the light by which one understands the relation between faith and reason, both in theology and in one’s worldview, consequently deepening the meaning of created realities and their autonomy, and giving rise to a spirit of openness to a peaceful encounter with the natural, historical and social sciences;
     
  • The call to holiness, rooted in Baptism, and further diversified according to the various charisms and vocations in the Church, as a background to a more coherent vision of the theological and ethical dimensions of Christian existence.
     
  • Il lavoro della Facoltà si struttura in base ad un Istituto di Liturgia e a cinque Specializzazioni:  Teologia dogmatica, Teologia morale, Teologia spirituale, Teologia biblica e Storia della Chiesa.

On Tuesday, October 1, 2024, the academic community participated in the inauguration ceremony of the new Rector, Rev. Prof. Fernando Puig.

The event was presided over by the Vice Grand Chancellor of the University, Monsignor Mariano Fazio, who also welcomed the professors who will assume new positions: Rev. Prof. Giulio Maspero (Dean of Theology), Rev. Prof. Thierry Sol (Dean of Canon Law), Rev. Prof. Giovanni Zaccaria (Vice-Rector), and Prof. Carla Rossi Espagnet (Director of ISSR at Apollinare).

The outgoing Rector, Don Luis Navarro, thanked the academic community for the support received during his eight-year term, also recalling the progress made by Santa Croce during this time.

Registration is open for an intensive course on the Decalogue (in English), promoted by the School of Theology and the Isaac Abarbanel University Institute of Buenos Aires.

The course (3 ECTS), titled One Revelation and Two Traditions: The Decalogue and Its Jewish and Christian Readings and open to students of the Pontifical Universities, aims to promote knowledge and dialogue between Jews and Christians. It also includes two visits to the Vatican Library.
