Critical study is integrated with experiences aimed at deepening spirituality and fostering personal growth in the context of Salesian community life and ministry. The process encourages the participants to deepen their appreciation for the founding charism, spirit and story of the Salesian Family, and the distinctive qualities of Salesian spirituality and mission. The study component of the ISS revolves around a core curriculum in Salesian history, pastoral or functional theology, and spiritual theology. Students enrolled in the ISS may participate in the program for personal enrichment or may pursue an advanced degree in theology. DSPT awards the Certificate of Theological Studies to ISS students who complete twelve (12) hours of graduate study in theology.
