Thomistic Institute

Promoting Catholic Thought in the Thomistic Tradition at the Heart of the Church

The Thomistic Institute at the Angelicum exists to foster scholarly research rooted in the thought of Saint Thomas Aquinas. It aims at promoting fruitful engagement with other philosophical and theological thoughts as well as contemporary sciences.

The institute encourages the study of Thomas Aquinas and the Thomistic tradition as a living voice and inspiration for Catholic thought. It does so by means of ongoing research, public colloquia, and collaboration with other institutes and university entities.
