Systematic & Philosophical Theology
Study in systematic and philosophical theology engages in the ongoing task of interpreting the Christian faith in response to our modern and emerging post-modern culture. Students and faculty analyze the ancient biblical faith and its ongoing re-interpretations in Christian tradition, tracing its influence on the history of ideas, examining its philosophical underpinnings and implications, and critically engaging its various contemporary reconceptualizations. Emphasis is given to the need for theology to be pursued in its traditional Roman Catholic-and particularly Thomistic-roots, as well as in an ecumenical spirit, with increased attention to cross-cultural dimensions of understanding.
